If a child lives with criticism, he learns to
be critical
if a child lives with hostility,he learns
to fight
if a child lives with ridicule, he learns
to be shy
if a child lives with shame, he learns
to feel guilty
if a child lives with tolerance, he learns
to be patient
if a child lives with encouragement he learns
confidence
if a child lives with praise, he learns
to appreciate
if a child lives with fairness, he learns
justice
if a child lives with security, he learns
to have faith
if a child lives with approval, he learns
to like himself















if a child lives with Michael Jackson, he learns
to sleep with one eye open

... if a child does not live at your house then things are incomplete.

geeeez. a big circle with holes in it? coal saw? Ah! Cole slaw! What you described sounds like a slurry from a coal mine. :)

If a child lives with jOhn9, he doesn't learn to type or spell. . . well. But he probably does learn to communicate, after a fashion.
