“If you've not been loved as a child, you don't know how to love a child.”
“I don't remember who said this, but there really are places in the heart you don't even know exist until you love a child.”
“You are a child of mine,Born of my own design,And you bear the hard of life.No matter where you go,Oh, you will always know,That you've been made free in Christ,And you are a child of mine! ”
“If you've never been hated by your child, you've never been a parent.”
“...if a parent does not know how to love and nurture a child while he is young, especially black boys, that child will grow up out of balance mentally, therefore feeling inferior.”
“You can make a child believe a lot of things. Santa Claus, the Tooth Fairy, the Easter Bunny... just about anything really, except love. You cannot make a child believe you love him if you don't”
