Peter Gray Quotes

If Freedom, Personal Responsibility, Self-initiative, Honesty, Integrity, And Concern For Others Rank High In Your System Of Values, And If They Represent Characteristics You Would Like To See In Your Children, Then You Will Want To Be A Trustful Parent. None Of These Can Be Taught By Lecturing, Coercion, Or Coaxing. They Are Acquired Or Lost Through Daily Life Experiences That Reinforce Or Suppress Them. You Can Help Your Children Build These Values By Living Them Yourself And Applying Them In Your Relationship With Your Children. Trust Promotes Trustworthiness. Self-initiative And All Of The Traits That Depend On Self-initiative Can Develop Only Under Conditions Of Freedom.
