I Want You to Love Me as I am and Believe in Me

“I Want You to Love Me as I am and Believe in Me" is a book written for caregivers, parents, mentors, teachers, social workers and therapists with a child in their life. The book is a friendly reminder for adults that they are their children’s first teacher and have realistic expectations for children and remember that kids do not have the vocabulary or communication skills to explain themselves. The book starts as a letter in from the Child’s Perspective and continues with quotes and Scripture verses. 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 in the New International Version Bible says "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails…” J.K. Viers is a therapist and parent. www.sharehopeart.com
