Morphology
superkid + attitude
Although 'superkid' is not a dictionary headword, its meaning is directly inferable from the known parts 'super' (very/excellent) + 'kid' (child) combined with 'attitude' (habitual way of thinking). This productive compounding pattern is straightforward and cross-linguistically common, so a B1 learner who knows the constituent words would likely understand the intended sense.
Etymology
The phrase superkid attitude comes from the image of a child who is like a small superhero, with super and kid joined together, wearing a cape and ready to face problems with energy and hope. So, it means a 'confident' attitude that helps someone keep going when things are hard.
