About This Quote

Children are naturally curious and innocent. They want to be protected and cared for. They think the best way to get that is by following the rules and doing what is expected of them. Parents can teach them that there are no rules when it comes to making choices, but they need to be prepared for the consequences of their actions.

They need to make sure they explain the importance of good choices like not stealing, not hurting others, and not lying. The world can be a scary place for children who don't know how to make good choices, but they can learn through experience that there are consequences that come with choosing wrong.
