The Best Attributes
The Best Attributes

It’s not the winning of a medal but getting up when you fall.
The pride of a parent swells when a child gives their all.
It has nothing to do with succeeding or being the boss.
It’s about having respect and resilience, even in a loss.

It’s about empathy and compassion more than prospering.
About hardiness and willingness than about posturing.
It’s important to have confidence and self-esteem.
These are the attributes of which parents dream.

Active listening is a wonderful trait we should strive for.
Self-awareness and emotional regulation are at the core.
Conflict resolution would equip each of us very well.
If we all had this skill in a relationship we’d never have to yell.
