Tip Tuesday
Mistakes can be great teachers. To help your children learn from their mistakes, set an example. If you lose your temper, or forget to do something you should have done, be honest and say, "I blew it." Then talk about what you could have done differently. Make amends if you can. Your children will learn that you take responsibility for your mistakes, and that will make it easier for them to do the same thing.
