to know where home is, wings to fly away and exercise
what's been taught them."

When my children wake up in the morning they know
they will eat breakfast, get hugs from their parents,
go to a good, safe school. Plates are full and
store windows are glittering. But at the same
time the great majority of the world's children
and women stand - no - shiver on the precipice
-- Susan Sarandon

“Children
are our second chance to have a great parent-child relationship”
-- Laura Schlessinger
Teaching
my kids to give back is an essential part of parenting.
It’s not something that’s optional. Compassion is one
of the basic values that I want my children to have:
that if they see a need, whether it’s around the corner
or thousands of miles of away, they should feel motivated
to do whatever they can to help.
-- Kate Snow (NBC Nightline)

All

and learning to be a parent. After he becomes

is better to bind your children to you by a feeling
of respect and by gentleness, than by fear.

Smile
at each other, smile at your wife, smile at your
husband, smile at your children, smile at each
other - it doesn't matter who it is and that will
help you to grow up in greater love for each other.
