If a child lives with criticism,
He learns to condemn.
If a child lives with hostility
He learns to fight.
If a child lives with ridicule
He learns to be shy.
If a child lives with shame,
He learns to feel guilty.
If a child lives with tolerance
He learns to be patient.
If a child lives with encouragement,
He learns confidence.
If a child lives with praise
He learns to appreciate.
If a child lives with fairness,
He learns justice.
If a child lives with security,
He learns to have faith.
If a child lives with approval,
He learns to like himself.
If a child lives with acceptance and friendship,
He learns to find love in the world.
