If you can prevent one fight among your children, let it be the fight for your attention.
Show as much interest in what your children tell you as they have in telling you.
Determination is frequently found in failure, but it is never found in defeat.
If you make a habit of doing nothing, you have already earned your reward.
Make it a practice to kick yourself for every time you answer your children with the words NOT RIGHT NOW.
There is no greater blessing than a family hand that lifts you from a fall; but there is not lower curse than a family hand that strikes you when you're down.
