I trust you

I know you can handle life's situations

You are listened to

You are cared for

2. We should teach children how to think not what to think.

3.  What is the difference between motivation and manipulation? 

4. Why do we lose power struggles with our kids?

5. What language (vocabulary, body language) should we use to motivate kids?

6. Remember the "WE WILL TRY AGAIN..." phrase if your kids fail to succeed in something.

7. What does teamwork bring into your classroom?

7. Children need to know they can make mistakes.
