” I appreciate all your hard work to strengthen families through healing and strengthening relationships. Two of your teachings have particularly helped our family. The first is the principle of kindness in the home. I don’t know how I managed to overlook that quality in my own family. It’s easy to be kind to neighbors, associates, even strangers – yet so hard to practice in the home. It is easy to get caught up in running the household like a drill sergeant and forget that these children are future leaders and mothers and fathers themselves. Since reading your lessons on kindness and how to practice it through thoughts, words, tone of voice and actions, I’ve noticed substantial improvement in the atmosphere of our home. There is more peace, more obedience and more respect for one another.
The second of your teachings that significantly impacted our family is limiting television watching. After you spoke of how children who watch much less TV have higher grades in school, I knew I had to give it a try. We turned the TV off for a week and it was amazing what happened! We actually talked to each other and the children got along better with less fighting and back-talk. We even discovered a benefit we could have never anticipated – our children were more obedient! Thank you for the idea! I surely appreciate your excellent work to strengthen families.”
