10 RULES FOR RAISING WELL-BALANCED CHILDREN

RULE 1 Allow your children to be themselves. Teach them
right from wrong and discipline them, but don’t try to mould
their personalities into what you would like them to become.
RULE 2 Praise your children’s accomplishments, no
matter how small. Praise far more often than you criticise,
and never tease them.
RULE 3 Never compare one child with another.
RULE 4 Always build up the image of your children’s
natural father.
Teach your children to pray
and love God, by example.
RULE 5 Be fair and always keep your word, so that your
children will respect you.
RULE 6 Allow your children to win against you
sometimes.
RULE 7 Present a united front with your husband.

Overcoming difficulties is how character is developed.
RULE 9 Have your children earn all their pocket money.
Teach them the satisfaction of work.
RULE 10 Teach your children to pray and love God, by
example.
