Good begets good. Bad begets bad. Out of control begets out of control - and calm begets calm.

Remember to distinguish the behavior from the child, because here isn't a bad child, just bad behavior.

Sometimes we forget that parenting, like love, is a verb.

Building confidence rather than self-esteem is like making a nice house with little foundation.

We have to model honesty for our children and let them know that it is OK to feel all of their emotions.

If we change the way we see our children, the way they see themselves will change. Always look for the good.

We feel what we think.

Stop worrying about what others think of you or your child's behaviour. Focus on doing what is right for your children, and believe in that success.

Focus on what you can do, not on what you can't.
