1. Child care centers can adapt to different parenting styles by taking the classes like parenting and child development. Some people who are working in a childcare center are parents and they do understand how to take care of different ages of children.

2. The tone of your voice is just as important as the volume. Our children are much more likely to listen to a voice that sounds warm and encouraging than to one that sounds harsh and judgmental

3. The way parents (or other adults) label a child can have a lasting impact on how that child thinks of him or herself. When a child has been labeled, that label will become a part of his or her identity. Labels often do more damage than goodby putting children in boxes.
