Famous quotes containing the word children:

    When children are treated with respect, they conclude that they deserve respect and hence develop self-respect. When children are treated with acceptance, they develop self-acceptance; when they are cherished, they conclude that they deserve to be loved, and they develop self-esteem.
    Stephanie Martson (20th century)

    For he purrs in thankfulness, when God tell him he’s a good Cat.
    For he is an instrument for the children to learn benevolence upon.
    Christopher Smart (1722–1771)

    With the breakdown of the traditional institutions which convey values, more of the burdens and responsibility for transmitting values fall upon parental shoulders, and it is getting harder all the time both to embody the virtues we hope to teach our children and to find for ourselves the ideals and values that will give our own lives purpose and direction.
    Neil Kurshan (20th century)
