Quote #3 is up in my classroom. :) :) That along with "Kindness in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates profoundness. Kindness in giving creates love." Can you tell I would like my kids to be nicer to each other?
I don't know that there is an experience I have had that I would want to make sure my children did not..... will have to think on that more.
