Children of today live in a world surrounded by good things and bad things. Adults wants to protect their kids from touching bad things but also let them try all the good things in the world, but we can’t always protect our kids. It is important, I think, that we give all children the tools so they have the best possibilities to live and experience a good and interesting life. Which are these important tools for children?
The most important tool for children in life is love. Children are hopefully surrounded with love from their birth until the end of life. Love will strengthen children and I think it is important to make them understand that they are unique and they serve as they are. I hope that all children in the world have a lot of experiences connected to love. I remember my own childhood as warm and loving and I lived in a secure world were mother and father protected me from all dangerous things in life. I wish that all children in the world can feel this security and love from their families and people around them. Adults have the responsibilities to take care of their children or take decisions that will lead to the best for them.
Respect people and they will get respect in return is the second tool for children experiencing world. Children need to be learned that they have to respect people and respect the fact that we all can have different views and thoughts but they don’t need to think and share the same thoughts. If they learn to respect people they will get respect in return. Respect is something they will get in touch with early in life and if they have a lot of experiences with respect it will be easier to think of it. All people are unique and I hope children will learn that if they show respect, are kind and good they will live a happy life and they will get all these things in return. This is what I have learned from my family and other important people in my nearness. This is what I and other adults need to learn the children.
Feel and think that they can do anything is the third tool. Encourage, praise and support are important for children so they have the courage to try different things in life. I have always heard in my childhood that I can do anything I want, it will not always be easy but you will make it. I hope that adults don’t forget to encourage, praise and support the children so they feel that they can do anything. But life isn’t always easy and children will face reverses and feel that life is hard, but once again if they feel support from adults and other people in their nearness they will face the problems and hopefully solve them. All reverses and prosperities will give children perspective on life and be experiences they’ll never forget.
These three tools are necessary for children when they are experiencing life, I think. My point of views comes from my own childhood and how I was brought up and learned. I really think that if children feel love, they respect people and they think that they can succeed with whatever they come up with, they will live a life they can be proud of and they will enjoy it. We can’t always protect our children, they have to experience life, but we can give them the tools so they can protect themselves.

Dear Rebecca,
SvaraRaderathis is a very good blog. I really enjoyed reading it! Your spelling is excellent and you have a clear theme throughout the whole text.
Nevertheless, there are a few grammatical errors. I will point them out by quoting them, and I will give suggestions on how you could have written instead.
- "Adults wants to /.../"
Should be "Adults want to". The s-form is only to be used when you can replace a name or a word with "he", "she" or "it".
- "It is important, I think, that we give all children the tools so they have the best possibilities/.../"
This sentence is written in a kind of "Swenglish". To improve it, you could write it like this: "It is important, I think, that we give all children the proper tools so that they will have the best possibilities/.../".
- "Children are hopefully surrounded with love/.../"
Should be "surrounded by love".
- "/.../take decisions/.../"
Should be "make decisions".
- "Children need to be learned/.../", "/.../to learn the children.", "/.../how I was brought up and learned."
There is a difference between the words "learn" and "teach". You teach someone else, but you learn something yourself. Hence, they do not mean exactly the same thing. "Learn" is to be used in sentences like "I learned from it." or "She will learn." The sentences that I quoted above should be:
"Children need to be taught/.../",
"/.../to teach the children."
"/.../how I was brought up and taught."
- "Feel and think that they can do anything is the third tool. Encourage, praise and support are important for children so they have the courage to try different things in life."
Should be: "To feel and to think that they can do anything is the third tool. Encourage, praise and support are important for children and it will give them the courage to try different things in life." Again, some "Swenglish" involved.
- "I hope that adults don’t forget to encourage, praise and support the children so they feel that they can do anything."
Shuold be "I hope that adults don’t forget to encourage, praise and support their children, to make them feel that they can do anything."
- "My point of views comes/.../"
Should be "My points of view come/.../". The word that is to be in plural is "point". And again, the s-form is inly to be used together with "he", "she" or "it".
- "I really think that if children feel love, they respect people and they think that they can succeed with whatever they come up with/.../"
Should be "I really think that if children feel love, if they respect people and if they think that they can succeed with whatever they come up with/.../". When you enomerate options or things like that, all enumerated words or activities should be preceded by "if", "or", "a/an", "the" etc. "Swenglish" again.
Again, this is a great blog and I think that you have interesting points of view. Keep up with this good work!
Greetings,
Maria Persson
