Growing Tips for Your Child

Water: Encourage with sincere praise.
Shape: Love the child always while addressing the behavior with calm, consistency, and reasonable consequences.
Prune: Be honest about unhealthy parenting patterns that affected you as a child that continue on in your home. Replace unhealthy patterns with those that produce stability.
Harvest: Look beyond the now (feelings) to the end result. Your child is a work in progress.
Consistency will produce fruit!!
~Proverbs 31 Ministries
