The message our children need to hear and feel is, “I love you no mater what you do. I don’t always like what you do or agree with what you do, but I will always love you.” Children who feel the security of parental love are much more likely to make wise choices in life; and when they do make poor choices, they are far more likely to learn from their mistakes and to correct future behavior. Nothing is more fundamental in teaching a child to handle anger than giving the child unconditional love.
