Example: the child has brushed its teeth alone.
My proposal:
"Dear Kathy! I am very proud of you for brushing your teeth alone, you did it very well! I am proud of you and I will be proud of you every time you do it!"
The point of such a praise is to encourage the child to do the same thing again.
Not necessarily. It is a known fact that the arabs will want to wipe out Isreal. And as for stronger economic ties, the Israel has already tried to give them back the Gaza Strip, which is what they wanted, and it didn.t reduce any conflicts.
