Children see, Children do...

I received an e-mail from a friend earlier today about a topic I have been thinking about a lot over the last few months, a rather powerful message if I may say so myself...it has hit home!

"This powerful advert will make you think twice about what you do in front of your children.

Take a look at your day-to-day behaviour – what are you teaching your children? They are not just passive observers of your life, they are an integral part of every interaction, and they learn how to deal with the world through your example.

We all have things we’re not proud of. We all 'lose it' sometimes, but there are many aspects of our behaviour and personality that we could change if we wanted to and chose to.

Can you picture your son or daughter behaving in the same way you do? Would you like them to make a positive or negative impact on the world? How are you going to be part of that?"

 Actually quite frightening when you sit and think about it….
