Don't throw away your friendship with your teenager over behavior that has no great moral significance. There will be plenty of real issues that require you to stand like a rock. Save your big guns for those crucial confrontations.
James Dobson
Image
Children represent God's most generous gift to us.
James Dobson
Image
There is nothing more important than parents passing on a generational legacy of faith and values to their children.
James Dobson
Image
Behavior runs in deep channels that were cut during early childhood, and it is very difficult to alter them. In order to change a deeply ingrained pattern, you have to build a sturdy dam, dig another canal and reroute the river in the new direction. That effort is rarely successful over the long haul.

The right to criticize must be earned, even if the advice is constructive in nature.
James Dobson
Image
Real crying usually lasts two minutes or less, but may continue for five. After that point, the child is merely complaining... I would require him to stop the protest crying, usually by offering him a little more of whatever caused the original tears.

James Dobson
Image
One of the first things you and your fiance need to develop is a meaningful prayer life even before the wedding. My wife, Shirley, and I did that, and the time we have spent on our knees has been the stabilizing factor throughout nearly forty years of marriage.

Touching Hearts, Changing Lives.
James Dobson
Image
Barring a miracle, the family that has existed since antiquity will likely crumble, presaging the fall of Western civilization itself. This is a time for concerted prayer, divine wisdom and greater courage than we have ever been called upon to exercise.
James Dobson
Image
It is my view that our society can be no more stable than the foundation of individual family units upon which it rests. Our government, our institutions, our schools...indeed, our way of life are dependent on healthy marriages and loyalty to the vulnerable little children around our feet.
James Dobson

Faith in God - life can never take you by surprise again.
James Dobson
Image
Keep your eyes wide open before marriage, and halfway closed there after.
James Dobson
Image
God's Heart is especially tender toward the downtrodden and the defeated. He knows your name and He has seen every tear you have shed.
James Dobson
Image
Conceit is a weird disease - it makes everybody sick except the guy who has it.
James Dobson
Image
The United States has been from the beginning greatly influenced and primarily influenced by the Judeo-Christian system of values.

You have to work to keep love alive you have to protect it and maintain it, just like you would a delicate flower.
