[Guest guest]

Dear Elders in TBP,

Love and Love alone....

 

Here is a posting, which I received from a difference source. It is

worth reading. Just think it over and see what best you can do while

handling the children with care.

 

Love and Love alone....

Children Learn What They Live

 

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 fear, he learns to be apprehensive.

If a child lives with pity, he learns to feel sorry for himself.

If a child lives with ridicule, he learns to be shy.

If a child lives with jealousy, he learns what envy is.

If a child lives with shame, he learns to feel guilty.

If a child lives with encouragement, he learns to be confident.

If a child lives with tolerance, he learns to be patient.

If a child lives with praise, he learns to be appreciative.

If a child lives with acceptance, he learns to love.

If a child lives with approval, he learns to like himself.

If a child lives with recognition, he learns that it is good to have

a goal.

If a child lives with sharing, he learns about generosity.

If a child lives with honesty and fairness, he learns what truth and

justice are.

If a child lives with security, he learns to have faith in himself

and in those about him.

If a child lives with friendliness, he learns that the world is a

nice place in which to live.

If you live with serenity, your child will live with peach of mind.
