Quotes on raising strong and resilient children
It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men.
~ Frederick Douglass

The good life (for your kids) is where you make the ordinary extraordinary, where you make the natural miraculous. It’s where you make the everyday unique.
~ Rabbi Shmuley Boteach
It’s not only children who grow. Parents do too. As much as we watch to see what our children do with their lives, they are watching us to see what we do with ours. I can’t tell my children to reach for the sun. All I can do is reach for it, myself.
~Joyce Maynard

~ Judith S Marin
