PRAISING CHILDREN
There's this fake and dangerous thing going on in the world.
People are PRAISING others' achievements.
The guy with the flash car, the money, the big house, the powerful job - he's praised for his achievements.
BUT what is his character?
I believe we should learn to naturally and comfortably praise our children's CHARACTER - often!
Scroll down the page on this site and print out the Character Qualities chart.
Actually, print out two.
Laminate them.
Put one on the fridge.
Put the other in the wall in the bathroom, or somewhere else that your family might read it.
Encourage the children to praise their siblings for good character qualities.
And if you are brave enough, seek God's help to humbly ask your husband or wife if they will gently point out the character traits that you are lacking in.
Then work on them :o)
