          It is good if they hear words of    ENCOURAGEMENT                    

Be careful to not judge the experiences in their life by yours

                   You    BELONG                

                   You have        VALUE       

           You are     COMPETENT                 

Adults who are still trying to find approval

          It is good if they see you at the     GAME           

                   What will happen if they don’t?

If you have a habit of being attentive and expressing interest in your children they will not confuse your instruction as rejection or meet it with rejection

Be careful how many games you go to!

It is good if you take advantage of the   TEACHABLE            moments

                   “Oh no.  The   DOG           ran away!”
