This short clip was created by the National Association for Prevention of Child Abuse and Neglect (NAPCAN) which is based out of Australia. The video represents the powerful influence we possess as parents over our children. We are their greatest role model and they observe us, observe our actions and our words more than we are aware of. It is important for us as parents to understand how children mimic us. Patterns of behaviors can be and are passed down from generation to generation. Demonstrate more consciousness before you act in their presence and ask yourself “Is this something I would approve of from my child?”
