Be a healthy mom and a healthy family.

Where no one’s a victim. Where responsibility is taken, not shifted. Criticism is outdone by praise. Where there is no shame and blame. Children are taught how, not have it done for them.  Where values are transmitted daily. And in all things love.

Moms, make sure your children have all these attributes

Self-worth. Accountability. Responsibility. Generosity. Care for others. Discipline. Honesty. Goodness.

Mothers, children are often resentful of your snoopiness. That’s okay, go ahead and be snoopy. It’s your job, and it may save your child. –Steve Henton

You can be overly controlling of your children, but you can’t be overly involved. Know where they are at all times and who they’re with, if they are mannerly…. and what time they will be home. –Steve Henton

The most important social structure in America is the family. Moms and Dads, preachers and politicians, don’t take it for granted. As the family goes, so goes the nation….to further blessing and strength, or decay and ruin.
