Couples Respond

Famous quotes containing the words couples and/or respond:

    Could that old god rise up again
    We’d drink a can or two,
    And out and lay our leadership
    On country and on town,
    Throw likely couples into bed
    And knock the others down.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Excessive attention, even if it’s negative, is such a powerful “reward” to a child that it actually reinforces the undesirable behavior. You need to learn restraint, to respond to far fewer situations, to ask yourself questions like, “Is this really important?” “Could I let this behavior go?” “What would happen if I just wait?” “Could I lose by doing nothing?”
    Stanley Turecki (20th century)
