Children Learn What They Live

The quote from Dorothy Law Nolte, PhD entitled, "Children Learn What They Live," embodies so much of the philosophy of Empowering Parents, Empowering Children. It begins like this... If children live with criticism, they learn to condemn. If children live with hostility, they learn to fight. If children live with fear, they learn to be apprehensive. It continues on in that fashion. I strongly encourage you to get a copy and contemplate it. I would like to add a line that isn't in the version I found. If children live with unconditional love and acceptance, they are empowered. I empower people for a living, and what I see over and over is that the reason they need empowering in the first place comes from beliefs and blocks that were formed years before I even met them. If you are looking for support as a parent begin by reading "Children Learn What They Live," and then ask yourself, how can I become more unconditional and accepting with myself? How can I become more unconditional and accepting of my children.
