    I don’t expect you to be perfect, you are going to make mistakes, and that’s ok.

    • I’m not perfect & no one else is either-
    • I do expect you to try your best all of the time.
    • I do expect you to find a good attitude when you have a bad attitude.
    • When I am correcting your behavior, it is because I love you and want what is best for your life.
    • Your being happy right now is not my biggest concern. You growing up to be the right kind of person is.
