All children should be taught to unconditionally accept, approve, admire, appreciate, forgive, trust, and ultimately, love their own person.

What are the messages that you are entertaining?

Perfectionists are not all negative, miserable, unhappy and over controlling individuals

Life is a purposeful action.

What is an unconditional state?

Are you living in the moment?

Shame and blame should have no place in our body, mind, or spirit.

Our perceptions are influenced by our surroundings.

Pure happiness and peace are at their peak when your body is in harmony with itself.

Are you seeking to be offended?

I have frequently thought to myself, 'If I can teach my daughter one thing, it will be the love of self unconditionally.' Unconditional love and peace are obtainable, but they are only obtainable if I can learn to move beyond the conditions that I placed on my life. When conditions are placed on my life and on the lives of others, they ensure that I will never experience the depths of love and happiness.

Boundaries are, in simple terms, the recognition of personal space.

The lack of culpability of the perpetrator and his or her transference of blame onto alcohol or other substances only perpetuates the violent behaviors.

Be your best proponent, ally, and advocate.

No one wants to be entrapped by his or her addictive habit...

It is essential that children who are directly or indirectly affected by domestic violence receive psychological care.

A child's temperament appears to play another significant role in the child's own perceptions and worldview.

Traumatic experiences in early childhood may interfere with the child's ability to securely attach.
