“They may forget what you said
but they will never forget how you made them feel.”
~ Carol Buchner
“If you raise your children to feel that they can accomplish any goal or task they decide upon, you will have succeeded as a parent and you will have given your children the greatest of all blessings.”
~ Brian Tracy
“The level of cooperation parents get from their children is usually
equal to the level of connection children feel with their parents.”
- Pam Leo
"You don’t really understand human nature unless you know why a child on a merry-go-round will wave at his parents every time around- and why his parents will always wave back.”
~ William D. Tammeuson
“If I had my had my child to raise over again:
I’d build self-esteem first and the house later
I’d finger paint more and point the finger less
I would do less correcting and more connecting
I’d take my eyes off my watch and watch with my eyes
I would care to know less and know to care more
I’d take more hikes and fly more kites
I’d stop playing serious and seriously play
I would run through more fields and gaze at more stars
I’d do more hugging and less tugging
I’d see the oak tree in the acorn more often
I would be firm less often and affirm much more
I’d model less about the love of power
And more about the power of love.”
~ Diane Loomans
"While we try to teach our children all about life, Our children teach us what life is all about. "~Angela Schwindt
