Dont Lie to your children principle

· Don’t lie to them about Christmas, regardless of how innocent you think it may be.

· Don’t lie to them when they ask you a question. Take the time to explain it in a way that they can comprehend it.

· Teach them how to properly manage money. If you’re not good at it, take them to someone who is. You are the example.

· Go to church with your child, don’t drop them off and pick them up. What example are you setting when you do that?

· Encourage them in everything they do. Don’t destroy their dreams and ambition, because you gave up or jealous.

· Apologize to your children when you are wrong. You set the example. Your child will remember, appreciate and respect you more when you can admit that you are wrong.

· Treat your spouse with respect. Your child is watching you.

· Spend quality time with your child on a regular basis. Remember, God gave you this responsibility, not your Nanny, Babysitter or their Grandparents.
