1- Parenting is a process. You never arrive with all the skills you
need.
2- Parents are not trained to be parents, kids are not trained to be
kids. Kids train parents parents train kids.
3- It is more challenging to be a parent than to function in your job.
4- Parenting is a journey, not a destination.
5- Parents are the most significant influence in a child's life.
6- A parent is the greatest teacher a child will ever have. A parent and
child certainly have the longest teaching relationship ever known.
7- It is not a question whether a parent is a teacher or, not, it's
what is taught. Parents teach kids a whole new language before they come
to school.
8- What you need to learn, you teach your child best.
9- The greatest aspect of learning is through modeling.
10- Parent modeling that includes the unspoken as well as the spoken
word is the most powerful force in shaping a child's life.
11- How you spend your time and money tell your children what you value,
regardless of what you say.
13- Successful parenting is predictable, reliable and consistent.
14- There's a difference between an investment that sounds good and a
sound investment. There's no greater investment in life than your
children.
15- Parents that praise their children at least twice a day maintain a
positive relationship regardless of problems they encounter.
Behind every successful child is a successful parent.
I've never met a good child that didn't have a good parent.
