Children who are truly loved....know themselves
to be valued. This knowledge is worth more than
gold. When children know they are valued they
feel valuable. The feeling of being valuable is
essential to mental health and is the cornerstone
to self- discipline. It is a direct product of
parental love. Such a conviction must be gained
in childhood it is extremely difficult to
acquire it in adulthood. Conversely, when
children have learned through the love of the
adults around them to feel valuable, it is almost
impossible for the vicissitudes of adulthood to
destroy their spirit. M. Scott Peck
