Effective parenting means taking the time to listen and to understand the hearts of our children so that we can grow together in faith, friendship, and love. Read Elder Robert D. Hales’ talk on parenting: bit.ly

@alcaeus Yes He does hear you and know the tender feelings of your heart. Don’t forget that. Many people struggle with feelings of loneliness, it’s part of being human. Just know that you are important in this world, and that you have a purpose here on the earth. It is up to you to discover what that purpose is, and how you can best serve your fellowman and find joy and happiness in this life. I know it’s through service. Just remember, you’re not alone.

@gradgurl2007 Very much agree with you! I’m so grateful for those who are willing to love my children and be good examples to them. In this respect, it does take a village!

@frenchizedboi: No one will ever have a perfect family. We all have imperfections and make mistakes but the teachings of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints can help one find joy and peace in this life that is not possible in any other way. If you live the teachings, you can become more like Jesus Christ, and help others be better as well. You can love others despite their imperfections, and accept yourself for your own. Love is the most powerful force on earth.

@elmoo44 You can click on cc under the message and click on translate captions, then click on bar displaying a language. A list of other language options will come up and you can change the closed captions to Spanish. Audio will still be in English, but the subtitles will display in Spanish

great thing! I am not a mormon but with this great feeling I WANT to realize what is true religion or church of Jesus Christ. Some day for sure I will be a member of this great church with all of my family members. I really, really appreciate your great work for subtitles, for me like foreigners who are not quite familiar with spoken English, these subtitles really, really help me understand this great and wonderful message. Thanks a million! Heavenly Father really loves this church.

There is nothing greater than being a parent. Letting my children know I love them everyday is something I know they need to know and hear individually and that I will always love them no matter what decisions they make in life. I played hide and seek tonight with my kids and the wife before bed. I know that just that little bit of time makes all the difference in how your children turn out. I am grateful for every moment I have to spend time with those little ones.

@DanceInYourRoom – Thanks for watching the video. I would encourage you to do some of your own research and see for yourself. I admire many Muslims that I know personally. We are similar in our respect for family, and in the fact that our religion affects our daily lives. However, in our teachings, we are very different, as you will see when you look for yourself.

Family is the basic unit of society. God put families in place for us so we might thrive and have the best chance for a happy and joyful life. I am going to tell my mom and dad I love them today. Wonderful video.

It is important to spend time listening to family members, even though it is hard to balance different aspects of our lives.
