Counter contempt by building a steady culture of appreciation: express thanks, fondness, and respect often.
Contempt grows where appreciation is missing. Regular, sincere praise is the long-term antidote.

I love how gentle you were with the kids today. Spoken admiration builds a loving base; unspoken does not.
