Family is the first learning of the children. Now change the order of the alphabet. Now teach them, 'A' for Action, 'B' for Behave well 'C' for Consider the things first, 'D' for Devoted to duty, 'E' for energise yourself, 'F' for Firmness, 'G' for Godly nature, 'H' for High thinking, 'T' for Indianness, 'J' for Justice, 'k' for Kindness, 'L' for Love to all, 'M' for Manliness, 'N' for No quarreling, 'O' for Optimistic, 'P' for Patriot, 'Q' for Quickness, 'R' for Relaxed, 'S' for Safety, 'T' for Trust in God, 'U' for Unity, 'V' for Values, 'W' for Wisdom, 'X' for X-mas, 'Y' for Yoga and 'Z' for Zeal. Teach the children such a good alphabetic order, that it becomes the part of their life. They should present themselves so gracefully that their name and fame add the beauty to the grace and glory of our nation.
We should plant a tree of good manners at our home so that we can make our children well cultured under its cool shadow. It must be such a nice tree where even the neighbours can get relaxed under its cool shadow. If you are addicted to any drugs or anything else, give it up for the sake of your children if not for yours own goodness. Give up the habit of telling a lie for the betterment of your children. Do not teach your children only business management but teach them life management too. Do not let your children keep on sleeping till 9 o'clock even if it is Sunday or any other holiday but guide them to utilise the holiday hours in a best way. Inspire your children to attend yoga classes, etiquette classes or any other such beneficial camps early in the morning or tell them to go to playground and play any game of their likings together with taking a little regular physical exercise. Instruct your children to cut and trim their nails timely so that no disease due to the dirt of increasing nails can prove harmful for them. Tell your daughters to avoid using nail polish particularly on right hand nails for it contains some harmful chemicals
