3 As for Jordan

After reading the article on "Meeting Life's 3 As", I would like to commit myself to provide Jordan with the 3 As.


Attention

• To give him my undivided attention at home when he gets back from the babysitter.


• To respond to his whining and crying whenever it’s appropriate.

Affection

• To shower him with lots of hugs/cuddles and kisses.


• To massage him.


• Say, “I love you” to him everyday.

Affirmation

• Clap my hands and say, “Clever boy!”, whenever he learns/does something new or obeys simple instructions.


• Tell him that I’m proud of him.


• Let him know that he is good at certain skills – like holding his bottle to drink.
