. . Children Learn What They Live  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 shy. If children live with tolerance, 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       faith.  If children live with approval, they learn       to like themselves. If children live with acceptance, and       friendship, they learn to find love in the       world. Author:  Dorothy Law Nolte Please let me know that you were here, by signing my guestbook.
