Shaping a child is like shaping clay（粘土）— you have to start from the beginning and work your way to the end with extreme caution but with gentle and loving
16 . However, unlike clay, you don’t get a second
17 with a child. You can put all the clay back together and start again but with a child, what is done is done.
18 it’s even more caution with care.
Building a child’s esteem is no small play; it makes your black hair
19 , steals away years of your life and still will not look done. Therefore you have to learn how to build self-esteem and
20 your child from the beginning. After all, parenting begins from babyhood.
Small case could leave large
21 on your child’s mind. Reason why you should not overlook something that went wrong. If another child
22 your kid, everyone laughed and you told your son to
23 it, that’s the first wrong step. You have to teach your child to
24 up for himself. Don’t let your child fall down inside. Tell him to ask the child why he is hitting him or
25 to the nearest adult he can reach.
Most of all before you speak to a child you have to be a
26 example. If you go around laughing at people, your kids will do the
27 . If you are a coward（懦夫）yourself and do not stand up to situations, do not
28 your child not to follow you. Children are like monkeys—they copy every
29 , from how you eat to how you handle situations.
Building self-esteem begins at home. Small self-confident acts make a(n)
30 impact on your child.
