“The most crucial years in a person’s life occur when he or she may be
the most carefree and unconcerned about the future—childhood and
adolescence. During these formative years, children acquire values,
attitudes, and habits that will guide their behavior throughout their lives.
Parents have the wonderful opportunity to teach their children proper
values and responsible behavior in ways that invite cooperation rather
than rebellion.”
