Parental Guide

There are three basics an infant needs if she is to be expected to thrive. Not surprisingly, one is good nourishment. It is also a necessity that she have shelter. One may think the third not so important but we now know that another basic is love. Orphanages recruited volunteers to show if love was part of a baby's three basic needs, if love was truly immensely important and its lack the reason she doesn't thrive, even when provided with adequate shelter as well as good nourishment. Mother's milk gave her baby nourishment and she instinctively gave her tender love, when our ancestors lived in caves for shelter. These ancient parents knew her needs and how to make her grow and thrive; that love, nourishment and shelter were all important. Who can say which is the most important? A good diet for her nourishment? That will surely help her flourish and thrive. She must also have guidance and love. Parents must provide all of her needs. Until age eighteen, they must provide shelter. Only the most delicate of plants must have shelter. Enough water and sun is important. People are not plants with simple needs, who only want soil and additives for nourishment. Some gardeners even give their plants love and will tell you that it helps them to thrive. It would be wonderful if the whole world could thrive and everyone could have adequate shelter. No one should survive without love. It is intangible but it is important as is insuring everyone rich nourishment in meeting the wide world's needs. For a child to thrive, three things are important, necessary shelter and good nourishment served with selfless love. These are her basic needs Won HM in contest
