Could the way I show care to others affect the way they care for themselves?

This is especially true with children.

If I don’t show care to them perhaps they won’t care adequately for themselves.

Yet – as I respect them, they will understand and learn how to respect themselves.

In a nutshell, we teach them how to care for and respect themselves and then they learn how to care for and respect others – because of how we cared for them.
