Children model themselves largely on their parents．They do so mainly through identification．Children identify 36 a parent when they believe they have the qualities and feelings that are 37 of that parent．The things parents do and say---and the 38 they do and say to them--therefore strongly influence a child's 39 ．However, parents must consistently behave like the type of 40 they want their child to become．
A parent's actions 41 affect the self-image that a child forms 42 identification．Children who see mainly positive qualities in their 43 will likely learn to see themselves in a positive way．Children who observe chiefly 44 qualities in their parents will have difficulty 45 positive qualities in themselves．Children may 46 their self-image, however, as they become increasingly 47 by peers groups standards before they reach 13．
Isolated（孤立的） events, 48 dramatic（突然的） ones, do not necessarily have a permanent 49 on a child's behavior．Children interact such events according to their established attitudes and previous training．Children who know they are loved can, 50 , accept the divorce of their parents' or a parent's early 51 ．But if children feel unloved, they may interpret such events 52 a sign of rejection or punishment．
In the same way, all children are not influenced 53 by toys and games, reading matter, and television programs． 54 in the case of a dramatic change in family relations, the 55 of an activity or experience depends on how the child interprets it．
