“If I could summarize my suggestions to parents over the past twenty-five years it would be: worry less, criticize less, preach less, listen more, have more fun, be more honest with your own feelings, develop your own joys and friendships, and don't sweat the small stuff (which is nearly everything). The goal is not to be a perfect parent, because no such thing exists. The hope is to be a good enough parent so that your child leaves home a responsible adult who can take care of him or herself.” IfsYearsChildrenEnoughFeelingsHomeWould BeCarePastJoyFunStuffParentGoalPerfectWorryFiveHonestAdultsTwentiesResponsibleOur ChildrenTake CareYour ChildrenFive YearsIf I CouldCriticizeGood EnoughSweatSuggestionsOver The PastTwenty FiveSmall StuffSweat The Small StuffWorry LessPerfect Parents Author:Charlotte Sophia Kasl
“One of my fondest memories from childhood is of looking at a globe with my father. "What's the biggest country?" he'd ask me and my sister. We'd spin the globe around and guess. . . . The globe brought me a sense of wonder and adventure. I wanted to go to those other places and see how people did things differently. And, many years later, when I did visit other countries, I took my father's interest and fascination with me. When we plant the seeds of fascination and respect for other people, we are teaching tolerance and peace.” PeopleYearsCountryWantedAsksFatherInterestMemoriesWonderTeachingChildhoodAdventurePlantSeedsToleranceAsk MeMy SisterOther CountriesGlobesFascinationRespecting OthersSense Of Wonder Author:Charlotte Sophia Kasl
“The planet earth has a life span of eight billion years, give or take a few million. People have been around for approximately forty thousand years-a virtual blink in the cosmos. It is sad that we as a species are ravaging the natural world so fast that we are jeopardizing our survival. If we wipe ourselves out, it would be the height of folly, but the earth will survive even us. It will eventually restore itself. It might take a few thousand years, and it won't be just as it was before, but its life is stronger than death.” PeopleIfsWorldGivingYearsHas BeensMightWould BeEarthLife IsNaturalMillionsPlanetsThousandSurvivalStrongerSpeciesEightBillionsHeightFollyCosmosFortyThousand YearsNatural WorldWipePlanet EarthBlinkLife Span Author:Charlotte Sophia Kasl
