Parents place more emphasis on their children being honest and kind than anything else, according to research.
A study of 1,000 mums and dads, of children aged up to seven, revealed the key attributes they’d most like their youngsters to develop as they grow up – with honesty, good manners and self-confidence coming out on top.
A quarter aspire for their offspring to have a good comprehension of emotions, while half would like their children to learn the art of “being kind to others”.
