Proverbs about Mothers from Around the World – African Proverb

"What the child says, he has heard at home."-African Proverb

This is a reminder that nothing shapes a child like his surroundings. While it is amusing (usually) to imagine a child repeating at school what his parents say at home, the truth is the foundation that is set during the formative years will likely remain in place for the rest of his life. If a child is raised in a home by loving, supportive parents, his chances of enjoying a sturdy and productive adulthood are greatly enhanced.
