If children live with criticism.
They learn to condemn.
If children live with hostility,
They learn to fight.
If children live with ridicule,
They learn to be timid.
If children live with shame,
They learn to feel guilty.
If children live with understanding,
They learn to be patient.
If children live with encouragement,
They learn confidence.
If children live with praise,
They learn to appreciate.
If children live with fairness,
They learn justice.
If children live with security,
They learn to have faith.
If hildren live with approval,
They learn to like themselves.
If children live with acceptance and friendship,
They learn to find love.

everything in this post is true and it offers to parents insight.
Great reminder. Understanding, encouragement, praise, etc...all are so important. You'd really like the Fishful Thinking website - a resource for parenting positive kids. There are activities and articles centered on a lot of things you mentioned. (www.fishfulthinking.com)
