that is true. Children are a reflection of their parents.
They will learn so much from what they see and hear from the adults they trust the most and spend the most time around.

How true :) i do agree with you ZoOmZoOm. Childrens can be considered as a white piece of cloth. it is the parents that colored them on how they are suppose to be. not only that, also believe the enviroment that they are in and the friends they mix with do plays a part too. good day.
