Parents
Let your children know,
they are valued,
for being who they are,
not for what they can.
Emphasize their good points,
even if they perform badly,
in school or in sport,
support them whatever they do.
Never compare them with others,
because if you do,
they will feel bad,
all children are unique.
Listen to what they have to say,
they need ears to listen,
if you ever laught at their ideas,
less likely they will open up to you.
Don't criticize more than you praise,
they will do their best to get more praise,
if they are criticized all the time,
expect they will do things again.
Spend quality time with them,
if they are doing good academically,
reward them, their efforts are significant,
you can eat out or go to the cinema.
Don't miss school open days or sports days,
unless if it's impossible to go there,
your presence is highly needed,
do try to cancel some appointments, they'll appreciate it.
If you just make them your priority.
If you just give them importance.
Your children will feel good about themselves.
Your children's self-esteem will boost.
