Simple Model

Famous quotes containing the words simple and/or model:

    The simple believe everything, but the clever consider their steps.
    Bible: Hebrew, Proverbs 14:15.

    Research shows clearly that parents who have modeled nurturant, reassuring responses to infants’ fears and distress by soothing words and stroking gentleness have toddlers who already can stroke a crying child’s hair. Toddlers whose special adults model kindliness will even pick up a cookie dropped from a peer’s high chair and return it to the crying peer rather than eat it themselves!
    Alice Sterling Honig (20th century)
