The idea of integrity can sometimes seem hard to understand, especially for children. What does this word mean? Integrity is the quality of being honest and having strong moral principles. When we teach our children to have integrity, we give them courage to do what they know is right. This is an important skill to have, both in real life and online!
What is Integrity?
Integrity is often accompanied by choices. For instance, a child might choose to play with a particular friend, steal a toy, send a mean text, help a neighbor, or make the bed because someone is asking them to.
During childhood, each small choice is helping to lay the foundation for the kind of adults our children will become later in life. Integrity is a key factor in this process because it involves deliberately made choices in response to one’s belief system.
