The home is a place where teenagers learn good values.

  • Teenagers learn more from what they see than from what we tell them to do
  • Learning to be honest, generous and hospitable; learning to handle anger, to resolve conflict, to apologize and to forgive
  • “like father like son” and “like mother, like daughter” our teenagers will learn more from us than from anyone else, if we’re there for them

What values would you like to pass on to your teenager?
