Parenting

I loved discussing parenting in class last week.  I guess I never really thought about it, but parenting is more than just raising kids.  It's guiding them, helping them recognize their potential, and leading them (to a point) back to our Father in Heaven.  Essentially, it's helping them "survive and thrive" (Michael Popkin) in this world and society.  In order to do this, we need to be the best people we can possibly be.  Without good examples and role models, kids will only grow up with mixed messages and confused about their place in this crazy world.  With help from the Lord and from the many angels He places in our lives, we can do all things, even parenting.
