Children Copy Actions More Than Parental Instructions
Parents shape social behaviour less through lectures than through the conduct children repeatedly observe at home. Kindness, sociability, friendship, hard work, and productive habits become indirect lessons, so parents need to model the behaviour they want children to adopt.

- Parents indirectly teach kindness, sociability, and work habits
- A parent's repeated conduct becomes evidence of what matters
