Safety Check-Point:
Be a Kind and Caring Kid!

Basic Information:
A Kind and Caring Kid (KCK) is someone who treats others the way he or she wants to be treated.

Each child is a special person, with talents, abilities, and characteristics. It is important for children to know that they have value and worth and that they deserve respect from others---just as they give respect to others. Healthy Self-Esteem is different from haughtiness, self-centeredness, and conceit.

Tolerance is accepting the differences in others. This is a two-fold process:
1. Recognize the differences in others.
2. Respect the differences in others.

Intolerance often leads to conflict, bullying, and violence!!

Tolerance is a behavior that should be modeled by all parents, instructors, and other adults, so that children will learn this easily. Everyone should be Kind and Caring!
