Please go easy on the criticism; remember, you can criticize the things I do without criticizing me.<\/p>\n<p>Please give me the freedom to make decisions concerning myself. Permit me to fail, so that I can learn from my mistakes. Then someday I\u2019ll be prepared to make the kind of decisions life requires of me.<\/p>\n<p>Please don\u2019t do things over for me. Somehow that makes me feel that my efforts didn\u2019t quite measure up to your expectations. I know it\u2019s hard, but please don\u2019t try to compare me with my brother or my sister.<\/p>\n<p>Please don\u2019t be afraid to leave for a weekend together. Kids need vacations from parents, just as parents need vacations from kids. Besides, it\u2019s a great way to show us kids that your marriage is very special.<\/p>\n<p>Please take me to Sunday school and church regularly, setting a good example for me to follow.
