Attitude is your perception of the world around you or how others perceive that to be. You can realize that you have a bad attitude on your own or others can help you see that in a kind manner. Kids are impervious to the idea of how their attitude affects others around them. I'm not sure at what point in life "ME ME ME" turns to "YOU YOU YOU". Anyway, we are teaching our oldest how to determine if her attitude is well - less than desirable - and needs correcting. This morning she was pouting around the house. I just don't "do" pouting. I never have at least that I can remember. As a result, I don't like pouting people around me. So I told her to go to her room until she found her happy attitude. After about 10 minutes in her room of being quiet, I hear her yell from across the house:
"DADDY I FOUND IT!" She exclaimed.
"What's that?" I asked.
"MY ATTITUDE! CAN I COME OUT NOW?" she asked.
She came out as happy as a lark and we all went to the Easter egg hunt at "Sandybricks" park.
