Parents Should Lovingly Inspire and Lead Their Children

“Do not try to control your children. Instead, listen to them, help them to learn the gospel, inspire them, and lead them toward eternal life. You are God’s agents in the care of children He has entrusted to you. Let His divine influence remain in your hearts as you teach and persuade.”

Russell M. Nelson,

“Salvation and Exaltation,”

Ensign, May 2008, 10

lovingly inspire and lead - that's a hard one sometimes. keep saying that over and over in your head - i often subscribe to the philosophy of satan - let's just make them choose the right! oh yeah, it's all about agency.

What have we been up to?
