FAMILY LIFE
Be a role model to raise kind children
Children learn best by example. We as parents/caregivers can take simple actions to promote kindness and compassionate behavior in children.
n Help an elderly or disabled neighbor with chores.
n Give canned goods to a food bank or to a family in need.
n Say “please” and “thank you.”
n Be courteous to everyone.
n Express appreciation for kind behavior.
n Smile! Vote! Make your bed! Obey speed limits! Open the door for others!
