i specified it as a child for the player(local player) but it didnt work
First of all, you are constantly defining the local player which can cause performance issues and you are also using an unnecessary loop, try this: JasiuJasiuB is wrong by the way, an infinite yield means an infinite wait not infinite items.
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local stat = player:WaitForChild('leaderstats'):WaitForChild('Strength')
stat.Changed:Connect(function()
script.Parent.Text = "Strength:"..stat.Value
end)

Either leaderstats doesn't exist for a way too long time or you might've spelt it wrong or haven't specified its location well.
