I just loved the ten “child commandments to parents” given to my kindergarten kid the other day by his teacher. It was indeed the crux of good parenting in a sweet lil capsule. May be it will stir a part of your soul as well as it did, mine. Happy parenting! 1) My hands are small; please don’t expect perfection when I draw a picture. 2) My eyes have not seen the world as yours have; please don’t expect me to see the things the way you do. 3) Please take time to explain things to me about this wonderful world. 4) Please don’t scold me for my inquisitiveness. 5) Treat me as you would like to be treated. 6) I am a special gift from God; please treasure me as God intended you to do. 7) I need your encouragement to grow. 8) Please don’t compare me to my siblings or friends. 9) Please set a good example for me to follow I enjoy learning. 10) Shower me with praise and see the enhanced level of my performance.
