Starting Young

Quoting again:

The lesson I want to instill is, "Show gratitude and loyalty to the people who have helped you".
...
Learning to be a good person starts young.
...
This teaches commitment and discipline. Children feel more secure with a routine. They will also learn to plan around existing commitments.
I have to admit, nothing makes me more happy than to see my daughters doing good things or showing that they have gotten a message about loyalty or helping others.

    Amen, Stephen.
