Behaviors Directed

Famous quotes containing the words behaviors and/or directed:

“Numerous studies have shown that those adults who feel the most frustrated by children—and the least competent as parents—usually have one thing in common.... They don’t know what behaviors are normal and appropriate for children at different stages of development. This leads them to misinterpret their children’s natural behaviors and to have inappropriate expectations, both for their children and themselves.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)

“The highest proof of civility is that the whole public action of the State is directed on securing the greatest good of the greatest number.”
