Cultivating the unborn or newborn child'snatural instinct to care for otherscan begin before the child is born.
While still growing within,the unborn child can be taught to love the wonder of all life and to respect and care for it.
You ask how can this be done? Just as you go through your day your attitude toward the little things you see and do registers with your developing child.
It makes no difference energetically, if the child is born or unborn the energy is totally united with the parents energy fields.
If you see a beautiful flower and mentally talk to the baby abut it.
The child feelsand responds.
Holding an animal and hugging it, talking lovingly to the child will be felt by the child.
If we explain to the unborn child why we feed our pets certain kinds of food and why we take it for a walks; this may seem silly, but it will heighten the child's awareness of how to properly care for animals, plants and the environment.
Caring for animals is a natural outgrowth of caring for our selves and others.
When all of life becomes fascinating and precious to us then our children tend to follow our lead.
Young children naturally identify with young animals.
If we love our pets and read stories or watch animal programs on TV while pregnant, often this positive energy of our concern and care will propel our child into a life of caring for all living things.
Talk to your child as if they were in the room with you about how beautiful and loving that animal mother is taking care of her young ones.
Then remind your child that that is the same way I will love and take care of you.
The entire universe is connected, so how we treat others and respond to caring for their needs and admire the beauty of all life will influence our unborn as well.
