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 fear,
they learn to be apprehensive.
If children live with pity,
they learn to feel sorry for themselves.
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 a child lives with ridicule,
he learns to be shy.
If a child lives with jealousy,
he learns to feel guilty.
If a child lives with fairness,
he learns to justice.
If a child lives with security,
he learns to have faith.
