  quote[0]='<em>Why can\'t you be more like..?</em> ... Every child is unique and an individual.';    /* add as many quotes as you like!*/
  quote[1]='<em>Why don\'t you act your age?</em> ... Many times when we insist a child act their age, they are acting their age.';
  quote[2]='<em>Must you always be such a slob?</em> ... Criticism only lays the groundwork for an unproductive power struggle. The key is to strike a balance.';
  quote[3]='<em>You\'re the funny one /athletic one /pretty one</em> ... Labels we give children can be problematic. And if you use a negative label, it can become a self-fulfilling prophecy.';
  quote[4]='<em>How could you be so stupid?</em> ... \'Stupid\' is a loaded word that can be especially damaging to a child\'s self-esteem and confidence, compounding a belief they are not unconditionally loved.';
  quote[5]='<em>Sometimes I wish I\'d never had kids.</em> ... A child hears: You\'re worthless; I wish you weren\'t my kid. I don\'t want you. A child can carry such hurtful messages around, even unconsciously into adulthood.';
  quote[6]='<em>Leave me alone!</em> ... An angry dismissal of a child can make them feel unloved and unwanted.';
  quote[7]='<em>Shut up!</em> ... Apart from being impolite, degrading, controlling and demeaning, children learn by example.';
  quote[8]='<em>Just do it – or else!</em> ... A child may not be motivated by something so unspecific.';
  quote[9]='<em>If you don\'t come with me now, I\'ll leave without you.</em> ... The threat of abandonment as a discipline tool is a destructive approach to take, and pretty scary for a child. It reinforces a fear that young children already have – that a parent might disappear and never come back.';
