Words Linger
This is so true.
Parents tell me all the time, our home seems to be a constant battlefield. Always correcting, always yelling and punishing. Consider for a moment that words have power. They provoke feelings that sting. If you want to live in a peaceful envirnoment, think about what the photo says.
And if your children are snarky, rude, mean, or disrespectful, then you have to take a hard look at the environment where they’re picking that behavior up.
It could school, the park, the kids in the neighborhood, a family member, who knows?
Kids are naturally sweet, kind, helpful and willing to be respectful, unless an shown otherwise.
