TO THE ONES NEAR CHILDREN

As a teacher I have noticed
Children act accordingly
When respect and appreciation
Expectations real and high.
Showing love to the small ones
Letting them to experience it
Guiding them with right and wrong
For their future means a lot.
Values get stuck for life
Like acceptance and forgiveness
Show with examples acceptance
And be sure they can forgive.
Let them know that they are worthy
No matter what they have done
Put no labels there is no reason
For they soon will change that way.
Look at the good grades
Rather than the flaws
Highlight the good ones
Praise them, more will come.
Make a small thing big
When option to teach
Empathy or distress
Its worthy the time.

I assure you...it is worthy any second you spend with your children. Listening Seriously.
Even a smile means the world to them!
