Parents are the first contact of every child before the society or community, its important to lay a good foundation, because they see the world through their parent. The ability of a child to see the world as a safe and secure environment or as a dangerous place is based on the foundation we have laid down as their parents. Their is need for expression of love, warmth, communication and room for improvement when they deviate from the expected behavior. All these factors have a long term effect on the children even till adulthood, their social behavior always reflects what they learnt from home. Children learn by observation and they tend to imitate words and actions from someone much older than they are. When your always cursing at people while driving or on the phone, and you have your kids around, days or weeks later they will use those exact words when an incident like that occur and will be shocked how they could relate the words with the incident. They are very smart, they learn fast and are eager to imitate what they hear or see.
It is our duties as parents to censor our words when we have our kids around and try to always interact with them and know what's going on in their minds and help them through whatever they are going through.
