It really requires a lot of patience and self control to teach our kids without putting emotions in the way. Other than love, of course, which is the very same reason we are teaching them in the first place. When the grow older and we can see what good adults they become, we'll be glad we did it. Thanks for the article. Very nice one. .-= Mely Wilcox´s last blog ..The Winner of the Pirate’s Booty =-.

Nice article. Indeed, it reminds me to be more patient with my child when teaching him. He just needs time and we might be setting too high a threshold for our child sometimes, wanting him to live up to our expectations.Love reading through your articles. Can you share more about what you teach in homeschooling and how you teach?
