Listen to the desires of your children. Encourage them and then give them the autonomy to make their own decision.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
You tell your kids that no matter what, you set your goals and you go for them. Whatever it is you achieve, never give up. You want your kids to have that good attitude, the confidence, and the will power to believe in themselves.
I think the best thing that you can do with your kids is to talk to them like they're human beings, not like they're children and they don't know what they're doing.
Don't give up on the child. Give the child an education. Give them daily love.
I don't want my children to have any kind of ego or entitlement because of what I do. I want them to be good people, and we fight every day so that they'll be that way.
With parents, that's the only way sometimes that they can get across to their kids is by giving them an ultimatum.
My objective is to leave my family adequately catered for, but I want my children to make their own way. I want them to have pride in their own achievements.
The first duty to children is to make them happy. If you have not made them so, you have wronged them. No other good they may get can make up for that.
Live so that when your children think of fairness, caring, and integrity, they think of you.
Even though your kids will consistently do the exact opposite of what you're telling them to do, you have to keep loving them just as much.
You have to really respect what your kids are doing with their kids and how they're raising them. You can't push your way into areas where you shouldn't be saying anything. You have to always remember they're not your own kids. Play with them, love them, spoil them to death - then hand them back.
