Helping Our Children Achieve 10/28/2022

Helping Our Children Achieve The word ‘goal’ can have a negative feeling for some. Yet, goals are essential for helping our children to achieve. If the word goal build an instant wall for you change the word to one that feels better to you. Perhaps what do I want to achieve or accomplis?. Perhaps what is my dream? It is important for children to play as large a part as possible. If children are constantly told this is their goal and this is what you’re going to do to achieve it, they become unthinking automotons or rebellious. You can start teaching goal setting skills with children as young as toddlers. Want to know more?
