Children's behaviour

Our children’s behaviours are very much influenced by the environment they live with. As Dorothy Law Notle reminded us:
If a child lives with criticism, he learns to condemn
If a child lives with hostility, he learns to fight
If a child lives with ridicule, he learns to shy
If a child lives with shame, he learns to guilty
If a child lives with encouragement, he learns to confidence
If a child lives with praise, he learns to appreciate
If a child lives with fairness, he learns to justice
If a child lives with security, he learns to have faith
If a child lives with approval, he learns to like himself
If a child lives with acceptance and friendship, he learns to find love in the world.
