THE PARENT TEEN CONNECTION

"Cherish your children for who they are,
not for who you would like them to be."

let your children overhear you saying complimentary things
about them to other adults.

Work hard to create in your children a good self-image,
it's the most important thing you can do to ensure their success.

In business and in family relationships,
remember that the most important thing is trust.

Tell your kids often how terrific they are and that you trust them.

When playing games with children, let them win.

Encourage children to have a part-time job after the age of sixteen.

Don't worry that you can't give your kids the best of everything.
Give them the love they need and your very best!

Don't forget, a person's greatest emotional need is to feel appreciated.

Every day show your family how much you love them with your words,
with your touch, and with your thoughtfulness.

When facing a difficult task, act as though it is impossible to fail.                    (If you're "going after Moby Dick," take along the tartar sauce!!)

Never underestimate the power of love and forgiveness!
