The
family is under attack from a hostile materialistic
society. In our present culture, there is disrespect for human dignity, a false
concept of freedom, fear of commitment in marriage, trivialization of sex, child
abuse and pornography, etc. And now, same sex marriages. Furthermore, these
practices are glamorized by media, films, TV sitcoms and advertisements. Fathers
have to exercise their leadership role in protecting and strengthening the
traditional
family
from these dangerous trends and lifestyles.
Dr. James B. Stenson, an internationally acclaimed educator,
lecturer and author of books on parent leadership has this to say on what it
means to raise successful children.
“Parents succeed with their children when the kids grow up to become
competent, responsible, considerate, and generous men and women who are
committed to live by principles of integrity – adults who bring honor to their
parents all their lives through their conduct, conscience, and character.” Dr.
Stenson gives permission to reproduce for private use his material found in his
