Okay we all know about Greta and her mission to bring the effects of Climate Change to our consciousness. I really hope she wins the Nobel Peace Prize.
But every day, either on Twitter or Instagram or Facebook I see cute and smart young people doing kind and decent acts.
Today. A child making bows for dogs in shelters to help them get adopted.
The number of schools and children that wrote letters to our Military personnel serving overseas.
If a request goes out for someone, young people encouraged by parents and teachers are doing those tasks or writing those cards or making some Art.
Talking to children about what they can do in a small way to help change the world is an ongoing process.
What role do we have as parents and grandparents? Set an example.
Firstly be a kind person every day to people
Secondly have manners.
Thirdly get the children involved in any activities. An easy one. Let them help you pick items for the local food bank.
Fourthly- well you think of some ideas or ask the children in your life for ideas.
