Top Ten Emotional Needs of Children

Here is a list of what could be considered the top 10 emotional needs of children. However, we all have an inner child, so this applies to us adults as well. Remember to meet your own emotional needs too by being kind and loving to yourself as well as the other adults in your life.
Children have a need to be:

1.      Accepted

2.      Believed in

3.      Cared about

4.      Forgiven

5.      Loved

6.      Safe

7.      Supported

8.      Trusted

9.      Understood

10.   Valued

If parents adequately fill all of these needs, the child’s behavior would take care of itself. If a child or person has positive feelings, then naturally positive behavior will follow.

This is my contribution to stop war and crime on an individual basis. One emotionally healthy person will nurture that in another and they then are able to nurture that in a family. The family nurtures a community, the community a nation, the nation a world.

Blessings for peace and love to the soul of the world.
