If there is anything that we wish to change in the child, we should first examine it and see whether it is not something that could better be changed in ourselves.
~Carl Jung
I enjoyed reading your quote, as I thought about some of the children I've seen. Sometimes as adults, we try to change the qualities in a child that are most difficult, rather than see these qualities as the child's gifts or the pieces we're missing ourselves.
