It's indeed a beautiful phrase and should be a must read for every parent on a journey to raise healthy, emotionally stable and intelligent children.
I was verbally abused as a child, especially by my father, because he felt I was not as brilliant as he wanted me to be and you could bet that this impacted on me negatively. I started believing that I could never measure up. This thought trailed my path and I performed so badly until I went to live with my mother who was the direct opposite of my dad. Then the improvement was noticeable until I came out tops, in my class.
Children would always reflect, in words and actions, what they see and what they are taught by their parents/wards.
Thank you for sharing this masterpiece.

I can see how the power of suggestion worked in your life. Lucky you have your mom. She showed the respect and love you deserve from a parent.
