children

Children learn what they live

If a child lives with criticism he learns to condemn.
If a child lives with hostility he learns to fight.
If a child lives with ridicule he learns to be shy.
if a child lives with shame he learns to feel guilty.
If a child lives with tolerance he learns to be patient.
If a child lives with encouragement he learns confidence.
If a child lives with praise he learns to appreciate.
If a child lives with fairness he learns justice.
If a child lives with security he learns to have faith.
if a child lives with approval he learns to like himself.
if a child lives with acceptance he learns to find love in the world..



کودک هر انچه دارد از اغوش مادر است
گر زشت خوی باشدو گر نیک محضر است
در دفتر معلم و اموزگار نیست
ان تربیت که زاده دامان مادر است
خوشبخت انکه مادر دانا بروز و شب
چونان فرشته بر سر او سایه گستر است
در دست مادران خردمند با هنر
خوشبختی و سعادت ابناء کشور است
