Girls Need to Develop Their Nature to Nurture
Mormon Doctrine / Teachings
"Satan is always attempting to undermine the most precious element of a woman's divine nature?the nature to nurture."A mother-daughter relationship is where a daughter learns how to nurture by being nurtured. She is loved. She is taught and experiences firsthand what it feels like to have someone care about her enough to correct her while continuing to encourage and believe in her at the same time."
-- M. Russell Ballard, "Mothers and Daughters," Ensign, May 2010, 20
