Affirming words from moms and dads are like light switches. Speak a word of affirmation at the right moment in a child’s life and it’s like lighting up a whole roomful of possibilities. — Gary Smalley

This is one area where so many parents fail. I love the quote by Smalley. Too many equate affirmation with insincerity, or they wrongly believe it will make their children proud. So happy you’re encouraging others to use this great parenting tool.
I hope your Sunday is full of joy,

Thank you for the kind words, Pamela. I am a teacher and I know how much words of affirmation mean to my students (as well as my own children, who are now grown!). I think words of affirmation are vital to all relationships. I love to see children’s eyes light up when you speak words of encouragement to them!!
Thank you for visiting my site!
