Train up your child

"Train up a child the way he should go and when he grow up, he will not depart from it" - Proverb

If a child lives with criticism, he learns to condemn
With ridicule, he learns to be shy
With hostility, he learns to fight
With shame, he learns to feel guilty
With tolerance, he learns to be patient
With encouragement, he learns to be confident
With praise, he learns to appreciate
With fairness, he learns justice
With security, he learns to have faith
With approval, he learns to like himself
With acceptance and friendship, he learns to find love in the world.

Parents, you are the first teacher your child would ever have before his/her teacher in school.

So, don't muff the ball with your children.
