Children begin by loving there parents; after a time they judge them; rarely, if ever, do they forgive them. -Oscar Wilde
Those who educate children well are more to be honored than they who produce them; for these only gave them ice, those the art of living well. -Aristotle
Children's games are hardly games. Children are never more serious than when they play. -Montaigne
If a child is given love, he becomes loving ... If he's helped when he needs help, he becomes helpful. And if he has been truly valued at home ... he grows up secure enough to look beyond himself to the welfare of others. -Dr. Joyce Brothers
I chose quotes that reflected some of the ingredients of establishing a secure attachment with children. I know these quotes by heart as I often refer back to them when I feel like an overwhelmed parent. They not only help me to see the bigger picture of life but these quotes also help me to stay focused on what is important in my life.
