I found some quotes that really got my attention and that I related to.
A child miseducated is a child lost ~ John F. Kennedy
A torn jacket is soon mended; but hard words bruise the heart of a child.
~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Before you beat a child, be sure yourself are not the cause of the offense. ~Austin O'Malley
Children are apt to live up to what yo believe of them. ~ Lady Bird Johnson
Each one of these quotes relates to different developments in a childs life. Rather it be a childs education, parenting styles, stressors in a childs life and encouragement that a child receives. Children are so precious and it is so important that they are receiving all the love and encouragement they need and they are staying healthy and given the chance to become something great in life.
I want to thank all of my colleagues for their support in this class. All of the discussions and blogs really helped me to understand the topic a little more, provided me with new information and insights, and provided me with excellent resources on topics we were discussing within this course.
I would really like to thank Agneatha and Christina because at times I turned to their discussions and blogs for guidence and understanding when I felt a little lost on the subject matter. They provided great information and helped me understand. I also feel like we share similar views on many of the course topics.
I hope that I have helped someone in this course as they each have helped me. I hope to stay in touch with you all and hear from you in furure courses. If I can ever be of any help please email me and I will try me best to help you. Good Luck to everyone in future courses.
Your quotes this week show how much influence all of us have on children. I like that all your quotes reflect on how much education children need and how much influence parents have on their children's life. I liked that all quotes state that hurtful words or not believing in children can almost have a more harmful effect then physical abuse. Sometimes we forget that children need our support and we need to remember that we need to support all of our children at all times. Thanks for posting these great quotes and reminding us about how important it is to believe in our children.
