POWER

I HAVE COME TO A FRIGHTENING CONCLUSION.

I AM THE DECISIVE ELEMENT IN THE HOME

IT IS MY PERSONAL APPROACH THAT CREATED THE CLIMATE.

IT IS MY DAILY MOOD THAT MAKES THE WEATHER.

AS A PARENT, I POSSESS TREMENDOUS POWER T MAKE A CHILD'S LIFE MISERABLE OR JOYOUS.

I CAN BE A TOOL OF TORTURE OR AN INSTRUMENT OF INSPIRATION.

I CAN HUMILIATE, OR HUMOR, HURT OR HEAL.

IN ALL SITUATIONS IT IS MY RESPONSE THAT DECIDES WHETHER CRISIS WILL BE ESCALATED OR DE-ESCALATED AND A CHILD HUMANIZED OR DEHUMANIZED.
