Be good to your children people. Watch what you say. Don’t degrade. Remember that they are NOT you. Encourage them. A simple “name calling” can stick in more ways then you know. Don’t teach them the words… shut-up; dumb; fat; hate; stupid; retard; wimp; etc. Teach them to love themselves. Tell them you love them. Smile. Hug them. Tell them that you aren’t perfect. Tell them when you are wrong. Listen to them. Listen to their friends. Do all thing for them unconditionally. Encourage them. Be honest with them. 🙂
