Problems Are Not The Problem; Coping Is

Adolescents Are Not Monsters. They Are Just People Trying To Learn How To Make It Among The Adults In The World, Who Are Probably Not So Sure Themselves.

I Believe The Greatest Gift I Can Conceive Of Having From Anyone Is To Be Seen By Them, Heard By Them, To Be Understood And Touched By Them.

People Prefer The Certainty Of Misery To The Misery Of Uncertainty

In The Nurturing Family...parents See Themselves As Empowering Leaders Not As Authoritative Bosses. They See Their Job Primarily As One Of Teaching Their Children How To Be Truly Human In All Situations. They Readily Acknowledge To The Child Their Poor Judgment As Well As Their Good Judgment; Their Hurt, Anger, Or Disappointment As Well As Their Joy. The Behavior Of These Parents Matches What They Say.

You Have All Played A Significant Part In My Development Of Loving. As A Result, My Life Has Been Rich And Full, So I Leave Feeling Very Grateful.
