Children in Shelter<br />

Remember, parents do the<br />

parenting.<br />

This creates consistency for children while<br />

respecting and empowering parents. Unless a<br />

child is in immediate danger of harm, it is not<br />

appropriate for a volunteer to:<br />

Contradict a parent’s instructions to<br />

their children<br />

Correct a child’s behavior<br />

Punish a child in any manner<br />

Offer parenting “advice” to parents<br />
