Me Grow (From your child's perspective) Please... Be consistent with me. Then I can trust your words and actions. Comfort me when I'm scared, hurt or sad Then I'll know that I'm okay, Even when I'm not feeling strong or happy. Communicate when you feel hurt Or frightened about when you're angry with me, Then I can hear you and I'll know how to communicate My needs in a positive way. Express to me that I'm okay Even when my words or behavior may upset you, Then I can learn from my mistakes And have high self-esteem. Balance your life between work and play, Then I can believe that I can grow up, Be responsible and still have fun. Remember what you wanted When you were my age, Then you'll better understand My needs and interests. Understand and accept me. I may be different from you but I'm okay. Treat me as an individual Then I'll know that I can be my unique self. Hug me and tell me that you care about me Then I'll feel lovable And I'll express caring to others. Thank you for hearing me!!!
