POWERFUL QUOTES ABOUT BRINGING UP CHILDREN

"Our children are our messengers to a future we will not inhabit."

Cannon Billings(Thought for the Day-Radio 4)

"What message do we want to send to the future about the way we have chosen to treat our children today?"

Dave Traxson

"You may give them your love but not your thoughts, for they have their own thoughts. You may house their bodies but not their souls, for their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams."

Kahlil Gibran

"Do not train a child to learn by force or harshness; but direct them to it by what amuses their minds, so that you may be better able to discover with accuracy the peculiar bent of the genius of each."




Plato

"If the only tool you have is a hammer, you tend to see every problem as if they are a nail."


Abraham H. Maslowe




"The pressures of being a parent are equal to any pressure on earth. To be a conscious parent, and really look to that little being's mental and physical health, is a responsibility which most of us, including me, avoid most of the time because it's too hard."

John Lennon

"Your children need your presence more than your presents."

Jesse Jackson

"Train the parent and spare the child."

Duane Alan Hahn

"Children need models rather than critics."

Joseph Joubert

"Children are apt to live up to what you believe of them."

Lady Bird Johnson

"A torn jacket is soon mended, but hard words bruise the heart of a child."

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

"To bring up a child in the way he should go, travel that way yourself."

Josh Billings


"Parents are not quite interested in justice, they are interested in quiet."

Bill Cosby

"Having children makes one no more a parent than having a piano makes you a pianist."

Michael Levine




No further evidence is needed to show that 'mental illness' is not the name of a biological condition whose nature awaits to be elucidated, but is the name of a concept whose purpose is to obscure the obvious.
 

Thomas Szasz

A child becomes an adult when he realizes that he has a right not only to be right but also to be wrong.
 

Thomas Szasz

A teacher should have maximal authority, and minimal power.
