The example set by A parent’s love for the Spouse will have a huge impact on their children! Every son watches how a father treats their mother. A son will make life choices and when they get married will either reciprocate that love to their spouse or decided they don’t want to become like their father. daughters will see the treatment of their mothers by their fathers and expect that treat wither good or bad they will feel that this is what marriage is. Daughters will also see what their mothers love towards their father and feel that is how they should treat their husband. A son’s mother will teach him tenderness and compassion. it is the root of a man soft side. some of the teaching is through the observation of a mothers love for his father. this is why a couples love is so important for children to see and understand.
another important part of Parenting is unity of rearing children. A family that is taught and lives the gospel is the responsibility of the parents. Unity in teaching and standards is important for children to understand what they need to do and what is expected of them. For children to best learn the gospel is to have parents live by example how they should act and live. mothers and father are in constant need to settle sibling dispute. constantly reminding them to share, be kind, and learning to forgive and compromise is a big part of raising kids. A child’s need are the parents responsibility to provide for both their physical needs and spiritual needs.
If a parent teaches their children the correct things they need to do and learn and live, they have done the basics of parenting. the effort and their willing to enforce teaching and rules will determine how well they did to teach their kids. If parents do all they can and their child goes way word or against their teachings it is not on the parents head because everyone has agency. this doesn’t mean parenting should be taken light heart.
