Friendship Skills

Giving children the tools needed to develop friendship skills today helps mold who they become as adults tomorrow.

Parent’s behavior (role model) will play an important part of what our children learn here. How we deal and talk with our friends and our family will give children a behavioral foundation to work from. Teaching manners, being respectful of other people’s feelings, cultural and racial diversities are all important for helping our children, to have success as adults in the world today.
