Back to the Basics

Every once in a while I read a quote or saying that really stops me in my tracks and makes me think. Today...was one of those days!

"If a child is given love, he becomes loving...If he's helped when he needs help, he becomes helpful. And if he has been truly valued at home...he grows up secure enough to look beyond himself to the welfare of others." -Dr. Joyce Brothers

This really made me think. The things I see the kids doing that I dislike...I do. How can I expect them to do otherwise?
