Parents Provide Essential Love and Security to Their Children
Mormon Doctrine / Teachings

"It is the parents who can give children the kind of love and security which can come from no other source. A child who understands who he is, and who has the kind of home where he feels wanted and loved, has no need to go wandering off to try to find his identity and to search for a happiness he will not find outside the so-called 'establishment.'"The happiest people I know are those whose life-style centers around the home. Work is very important, and success in one's profession or business is also essential to happiness, but remember what we say so often: 'No other success can compensate for failure in the home.' "
-- N. Eldon Tanner, "Happiness Is Home Centered, Ensign," June 1978, 2
