Parents' Warm, Caring Interaction Will Have Lasting Effects on Children
Mormon Doctrine / Teachings

"It is impossible to overestimate the influence of parents who understand the hearts of their children. Research shows that during the most important transitions of life?including those periods when youth are most likely to drift away from the Church?the greatest influence does not come from an interview with the bishop or some other leader but from the regular, warm, friendly, caring interaction with parents."
