It was shown to us by a loving person. And since then we keep each other accountable.

I just realized I too am that weak link. Oh I hear the wind of change in me that you have sparked.

I wish it were once and for all, but that's not how it works. I do think that how our kids act elsewhere is a pretty good indicator of how they will act (generally) later in life, when we're not around. This gives me hope, because my kids seem to be better behaved when at someone else's house!

It is easier to just let things slide than to actively train our children in the way they should go.
