Flies on the wall

Little ears are hyper-sensitive to the words that come out of our mouths.  Little attitudes mirror our own.  And little brains are much smarter and much more receptive than we give them credit for.  Our children are the flies on the wall.  Be mindful of what you say.  Be mindful of what you do.  When you wonder why your child behaves a certain way, look to yourself and the way you behave.  Be honest with yourself.  Be truthful about your actions and your words and you may find that your child is a perfect replica of you.

  1. I can relate to this on soooo many levels. Mine inherited my stubborn, independent, hot-tempered personality. And my parents think it's hi-laaaarious. Me not so much.
