Most Of Us, I Believe, Admire Strength...

When We Leave Our Child In Nursery School For The First Time, It Won't Be Just Our Child's Feelings About Separation That We Will Have To Cope With, But Our Own Feelings As Well-from Our Present And From Our Past, Parents Are Extra Vulnerable To New Tremors From Old Earthquakes.

I Hope You're Proud Of Yourself For The Times You've Said "yes," When All It Meant Was Extra Work For You And Was Seemingly Helpful Only To Someone Else.

The Greatest Gift That You Can Give Another Person Is To Gracefully Receive Whatever It Is That They Want To Give Us.

It's Not Always Easy For A Father To Understand The Interests And Ways Of His Son. It Seems The Songs Of Our Children May Be In Keys We've Never Tried. The Melody Of Each Generation Emerges From All That's Gone Before. Each One Of Us Contributes In Some Unique Way To The Composition Of Life.

And Those Handmade Presents That Children Often Bring Home From School: They Have So Much Value! The Value Is That The Child Put Whatever He Or She Could Into Making Them. The Way We Parents Respond To The Giving Of Such Gifts Is Very Important. To The Child The Gift Is Really Self, And They Want So Much For Their Selves To Be Acceptable, To Be Loved.
