My encouraging words to my readers and their parents: I sincerely wrote this true story of my childhood life that I may be able to encourage a child or a parent to write about their childhood experiences. Especially if there is something that might be troubling to them. I had a very adventurous childhood with my parents, siblings, and friends. All I wanted to do was please my parents. My personal advice to children of all ages is to talk and ask your parents questions. Write about your experiences, listen and pray to God about it, and my advice to parents is to always take time out with your child, never be too busy to hear what your child has to say. Remember when you spend time together, you are shaping your child's life and developing a good lifelong relationship. Be your child's role model.
