Raising children to be thankful and appreciative for what they have is
a difficult task today. What are some ways that you instill these
values in your children? My children and I participate in several
activities around the holidays that help provide assistance to needy
families. These are often families that we know personally so my
children see first-hand how they can affect other people.

It all starts at home. Children should be taught from the very
beginning manners and respect. Too many people are letting their
children show disrespect to adults as well as others. To many people
are allowing their children to act like brats.. The excuse is "Well
if they don't want too..." I firmly agree children should not have to
do something that they are not comfortable with such as kissing or
hugging, but speaking is something that should be done. Thank you and
please and your welcome are not hard
