When I was in High School, I had a course called Child Care. I was exposed to the quote below and I fell in love with it. Too often people talk down to children or underestimate their capabilities. I believe we need to listen to their ideas, encourage their spirit, and allow ourselves the opportunity to learn from them as much as they learn from us.
"We worry about what a child will become tomorrow, yet we forget that he is someone today." - Stacia Tauscher
Very nice quote Allison and very true. I have once also read that the biggest mistake is when we talk to kids with the cutie cutie language whilst this is the time to build their language strength and vocabulary.
