If children live with shame, they learn to feel guilty.
 
If children live with encouragement, they learn confidence.
 
If children live with tolerance, they learn patience.
 
If children live with praise, they learn appreciation.
 
If children live with acceptance, they learn to love.
 
If children live with approval, they learn to like themselves.
 
If children live with recognition, they learn it is good to have a goal.
 
If children live with sharing, they learn generosity.
 
If children live with honesty, they learn truthfulness.
 
If children live with fairness, they learn justice.
 
If children live with kindness and consideration, they learn respect.
 
If children live with security, they learn to have faith in themselves and in those about them.
 
If children live with friendliness, they learn the world is a nice place in which to live.


けなされて育つと、子供は人をけなすようになる

とげとげした家庭で育つと、子供は乱暴になる

不安な気持ちで育てると、子供も不安になる

「かわいそうな子だ」と言って育てると、子供はみじめな気持ちになる

子供を馬鹿にすると、引っ込み思案な子になる

親が他人ばかりを羨んでいると、子供も人を羨むようになる

叱りつけてばかりいると、子供は「自分は悪い子なんだ」と思ってしまう

励ましてあげれば、子供は自信を持つようになる

広い心で接すれば、キレる子にはならない

誉めてあげれば、子供は明るい子に育つ

愛してあげれば、子供は人を愛する事を学ぶ

認めてあげれば、子供は自分が好きになる

見つめてあげれば、子供は頑張り屋になる

分かち合う事を教えれば、子供は思いやりを学ぶ

親が正直であれば、子供は正直である事の大切さを知る

子供に公平であれば、子供は正義感のある子に育つ

やさしく、思いやりを持って育てれば、子供はやさしい子に育つ

守ってあげれば、子供は強い子に育つ

和気あいあいとした家庭で育てば、子供は、この世はいいところだと思えるようになる
