The ProphetKahlil Gibran

Your children are not your children.They are the sons and daughters of Life’s longing for itself.They come through you but not from you,And through they are with you yet they belong not to youYou may give them your love but not your thoughtsFor they have their own thoughtsYou may house their bodies but not their soulsFor their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you connot visit, not even in your dreams.You may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you.For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday.

智慧Kahlil Gibran您的儿女并非您的私有物您的儿女是独立的生命体这生命通过您得以降临这生命与您相依相随，但它不从属于您。您可以给予的是您的爱，不能强加的是您的思想因为他们的思维属于自身的您可以给予的是栖身之所， 不能禁锢的是他们的灵魂因为他们的灵魂盛满着未来您是无法了解，也无法想象的未知世界您可以去努力成为向他们一样的人，但绝不能反其道而行之。因为生活不可能逆转，也不可能停留在昨天

Close-up gaps/Building up leadership qualities

in my child

Parenting pointers:Do I want MY child to be a leader or a follower?• Is learned• does not necessarily mean that a person is in a

position to tell others what to do.• Leader of self and influence others• being able to stand up to peer pressure

My words: Parents play an important role to instill your children with the knowledge and skills to be a leader everyday of their life...beginning TODAY!

Tips and Suggestions:1. Encourage independence says “Yes, you Can!” “It's not a problem, it's a Challenge!”” never give up!” Trust them to find solutions themselves; says “Never give up,” Encouraging instead of rewarding/praising learn from mistakes and move ahead_make commitment do my best/no comparison

2. Understanding your child, yourself and the situation Kind but firm( set up limit, avoid tension, positive, admit your mistakes, respectful tones, no

back talk, focus on/share feelings, don’t use punishment, action instead of nagging) Rational but not emotional ( calm, suggestions instead of ordering: what about your…?) communicating daily

3. Taking actions: Looking at/talking about leaders parents be a leader yourself Looking for leadership opportunities Encouraging kids to solve problems by studying
