These are a few of the kiddies
that I have Childminded
over the last 16 years.
If children live with criticism
They learn to condemn.
If children live with hostility
They learn to fight.


If children live with ridicule
They learn to be shy.
If children live with shame
They learn to feel guilty.


If children live with tolerance
They learn to be patient.
If children live with encouragement
They learn confidence.


If children live with praise
They learn to appreciate.
If children live with fairness
They learn justice.


If children live with security
They learn to have faith.
If children live with approval
They learn to like themselves.

If children live with
Acceptance and Friendship
They learn
To find Love in the World
