The middler child needs
to know that we do indeed care and we are willing to share his feelings of
pain and rejection as well as joy and happiness.
ã
Recognize the uniqueness of each individual.
No two children are exactly alike.
ã
Accept the child just as he is. A child
should not feel he has to earn acceptance and love.
ã
Praise the child regularly for his effort,
whether it is a success or not. Notice improvements in behavior or in
skills.
ã
Help the children find a workable set of
guidelines to base their lives on, and stay within them.
ã
Spend time with the children outside the
classroom, and listen to what each child says.
ã
Plan times to be alone with each child. Let
him tell you about school, home, sports, etc.
ã
Make eye contact with each child whenever
you can. These relations make contact on a deeper spiritual level possible.
