| Children Learn As They Grow
-- Dorothy Law Nolte -- |

|
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 be shy. If a child lives with shame, He learns to feel guilty. If a child lives with tolerance, He learns to be patient. If a child lives with encouragement, He learns confidence. If a child lives with praise, He learns to appreciate. If a child lives with fairness, He learns 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. |
