Please…
Understand… that I am growing up and changing very fast. It must be difficult to keep pace with me, but please try.
Listen to Me…and give me brief, clear answers to my questions. Then I will keep sharing my thoughts and feelings.
Reward Me…for telling the truth. Then I am not frightened into lying.
Tell Me…when you make mistakes and what you learned from them. Then I can accept that I am OK even if I blunder.
Pay attention…to me an spend time with me. Then I can believe that I am important and worthwhile.
Do the Things…you want me to do. Then I have a good role model.
Trust…and respect me. Even though I am smaller than you. I have feelings and needs just like you.
Compliment and appreciate me. Then I’ll feel good, and I’ll want to continue to please you.
Help Me…explore my unique interests, talents and potential. In order for me to be happy. I need to be me, and not someone you want me to be.
Be and individual…and create your own happiness. Then you can teach me the same, and I an live a happy, successful and fulfilling life.
Thank you for hearing me, I Love You…
