by being a successful parent. A parent cannot 'make' their child
successful; they can only give them the tools to find success
themselves.

Boundaries and Consequences

not to obey or comply with directions from their parents. Some parents
hope in vain that if they ignore this non-compliant behavior it will go
away.

Child Idiosyncrasies Are "Normal"
- Children do not think like or view the
world like adults...they will do weird things. If it doesn't hurt them
or destroy their outlook on life, let them be weird kids some times.

Children Do Foolish Things
- Remember, children will do foolish things;
and it is your job as a parent to help them learn wisdom. Children
will model behaviors that they see, so don't expect more from them than
you are willing to demonstrate and live yourself.

Catch Them Doing Good
- A child’s behavior depends upon who the child
is, what they know or can expect from you and what they want.

A True Partnership
- When God created Eve, he created her from Adams'
rib, to be at his side, his equal and his companion. So when the scriptures teach
that a wife should submit to her husband, it does not mean that she is inferior in any way.

Wisdom In Our Words
- The Savior has warned "that every idle word that
men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment." (Matt. 12:36.)

How Do You Communicate?
- Paul counseled the Ephesians, "Let no
corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good." (Eph. 4:29.)

love rather than loudness.
