How Do Children Learn? Being a dad of 2 girls, I always try my best to do right by them by providing support, comfort, listening to them, and love. Like many others, I don’t always get things right.
I just wanted to share with you all a poem by Dorothy Law Nolte. I love this poem; it’s so true, and I find the words really moving.
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 shame
They learn to be guilty
If Children live with tolerance
They learn to be patient
If Children live with encouragement
They learn to appreciate
If Children live with praise
They learn to appreciate
If Children live with fairness
They learn justice
If Children live with security
They learn to have 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
Conclusion
I know this is nothing to do with Health and Fitness, but I believe we can all learn a thing or two from this poem.
