Children, unfortunately, are not born with a value system. Honesty, loyalty, courage, responsibility, compassion, perseverance, courage, faith and patience are not inheritable traits. They are, however, influenced by nurture. Aristotle stressed the importance of modeling virtuous thought in children. As great a task it may seem, creating a moral compass for your child requires little more effort than your own good example.
Children learn by example in their homes, their schools and their community.
While we can't control their behavior, we can help them make the right decisions. Lead by Example. Parents are infallible heroes and children are their copy-cats. They do as they see fit by example, good or bad. Watch what they watch on TV, don't make them watch your programs.
