Kindness Kids Speak Out

Do you think that kindness is taught by parents or is a person born being kind?

"People will be kind if we behave kindly, so automatically it becomes a habit and it is passed on to everyone - parents to children and between friends."~Ms. Kanthimathy

"I think that your parents teach you [to be kind]."~Curtis

"I think events in peoples lives make them kind."~ Bernie

"Its the environment in which one is born and brought up that makes a person kind. We acquire the good qualities from the people we mingle with and books we read."~Mr. Rahiman

Make the people in your family feel special every day.
