Children at certain ages have distinct actions, and boys at certain ages have a particular way of acting too.
‐‐ Regina King
Children begin by loving their parents; after a time they judge them; rarely, if ever, do they forgive them.
‐‐ Oscar Wilde
Children between the ages of five to ten years are even more variable. They are going to vary from very high functioning, capable of doing normal school work, to nonverbal who have all kinds of neurological problems.
‐‐ Temple Grandin
Children born of married parents in America face a higher risk of seeing them break up than children born of unmarried parents in Sweden.
‐‐ Arlie Russell Hochschild
Children born to teens have less supportive and stimulating environments, poorer health, lower cognitive development, and worse educational outcomes. Children of teen mothers are at increased risk of being in foster care and becoming teen parents themselves, thereby repeating the cycle.
‐‐ Jane Fonda
Children can be disciplined with love.
‐‐ Gordon B. Hinckley
Children can only take so much, and they deal with it however they can.
‐‐ Julie Christie
Children can't help but create: they need to put their mind on the page, they want to paint, to sculpt, to write short stories.
‐‐ Jonah Lehrer
Children can take lessons in that school via the Internet and can score extra points like e.g. in Geography or History. That sounds very promising and is a fantastic basis for future steps.
‐‐ Anatoly Karpov
Children can write poetry and then, unless they're poets, they stop when reach puberty.
‐‐ Dennis Potter
Children change you. They really do.
‐‐ Rob Lowe
Children change you. You have this overwhelming feeling of responsibility, of love - they're everything. They're yours. You know when you're cuddling them, cradling them, and you can smell their hair. I love that.
‐‐ Philip Glenister
Children crave routine and find listening to the same stories over and over again soothing. If you've grown weary of the holiday books you've read your kid 7,883 times, try adding 'dude' to the end of every line of dialogue.
‐‐ Adam Mansbach
Children, dear and loving children, can alone console a woman for the loss of her beauty.
‐‐ Honore de Balzac
Children do have the potential to kill art. But now I think they kill the bad art. At least that is what my son has done for me.
‐‐ Kevin Wilson
Children do not give up their innate imagination, curiosity, dreaminess easily. You have to love them to get them to do that.
‐‐ R. D. Laing
Children do not have to learn that streets are dangerous places by potentially fatal trial and error.
‐‐ Keith Henson
Children don't just play any more - they're far too busy learning to fence and taking extra French classes. In the end, you're actually doing more damage to your children by trying to hot-house them. It's far better to remain a calm parent.
‐‐ Shirley Henderson
Children don't make judgments about which details are important... a child captures them all.
‐‐ Rohinton Mistry
Children don't need much advice but they really do need to be listened to and not just with half an ear.
‐‐ Emma Thompson
Children don't really understand the concept of health. You can't give them an apple and say 'if you eat this you will be healthy when you're older' because they don't understand. You have to find a different way to motivate them.
‐‐ Magnus Scheving
Children don't run around outside as much as they did. They sit in front of computer games.
‐‐ Toyo Ito
Children don't understand about people loving each other and then suddenly not.
‐‐ Gene Tierney
Children enhance you.
‐‐ Melanie Griffith
Children enjoy the present because they have neither a past nor a future.
‐‐ Jean de la Bruyere
Children, even infants, are capable of sympathy. But only after adolescence are we capable of compassion.
‐‐ Louise J. Kaplan
Children find prescriptive reading lists daunting, and they are a dangerous thing to have in schools.
‐‐ Malorie Blackman
Children frequently sing meaningful phrases to themselves over and over again before they learn to make a distinction between singing and saying.
‐‐ David Antin
Children from a given family background, when put in schools of different social compositions, will achieve at quite different levels.
‐‐ James S. Coleman
Children from like 8 and even up to the college age - Spider-Man appeals to a fairly broad demographic but, like I said, a mean age probably of 12 is a good mark - they process information so quickly and it's not because of attention deficit or short attention span.
‐‐ Thomas Haden Church
Children give life a reason to be - they make life.
‐‐ Len Goodman
Children go from being a kind of cultural protectorate to the Junior Auxiliary of the tube-watching nation at large, and programs are designed for them on the same principle as they're designed for grown-ups: as a way to sell eyeballs to advertisers.
‐‐ Jonathan Dee
Children go where they find sincerity and authenticity.
‐‐ Eric Cantona
Children go with whatever makes them feel good - like if that's the color green or orange, they do that with their clothes. As I've grown older, everything reversed. My music, my personality - onstage those things became my colors.
‐‐ Janelle Monae
Children had a special status - protected from the outside world - and they dressed for the part in a way that made that special status immediately visible to themselves and the adults.
‐‐ Maggie Gallagher
Children have a great urge to learn about dinosaurs.
‐‐ Jack Horner
Children have a right to some stability and constancy from the adults in their lives.
‐‐ Dan Savage
Children have a very good idea of how to distinguish between fantasies and realities. It's just they are equally interested in exploring both.
‐‐ Alison Gopnik
Children have a way of forcing you back into the present moment.
‐‐ Lorna Luft
Children have always responded to me because I have that cartoon-character look.
‐‐ Dolly Parton
Children have in the past and continue to influence policy makers.
‐‐ Carol Bellamy
Children have limited power to shape their own lives, but when they can experiment with possibilities through books, their optimism can be recharged and kept alive.
‐‐ Morris Gleitzman
Children have neither a past nor a future. Thus they enjoy the present, which seldom happens to us.
‐‐ Jean de la Bruyere
Children have never been very good at listening to their elders, but they have never failed to imitate them.
‐‐ James A. Baldwin
Children have such vibrant minds. They need to play. They need to be creative. They need to imagine. It's so important for their sense of self discovery. And it helps them learn problem-solving.
‐‐ Jan Brett
Children have to be educated, but they have also to be left to educate themselves.
‐‐ Ernest Dimnet
Children have to be motivated to want to learn to read. Reading must not be taught simply as a school exercise.
‐‐ Michael Morpurgo
Children have to be provided a nurturing environment to grow. Sadly, in India we don't have a robust mental health programme for children. There is also a lack of accountability in the public system.
‐‐ Vikram Patel
Children have to have access to books, and a lot of children can't go to a store and buy a book. We need not only our public libraries to be funded properly and staffed properly, but our school libraries. Many children can't get to a public library, and the only library they have is a school library.
