"Mention the word discipline in connection with rearing children, and images of various forms of punishment may come to mind. But discipline encompasses the entire process of shaping and molding a child's attitudes and behaviors over the years that he or she is entrusted to your care. This project is deserving of your diligence, fervor, humility, and prayer."
"Effective, loving parenting is characterized not by the absence of conflict but by the resolution of conflicts in ways that maintain both your leadership and your child's dignity."
~ from Focus on the Family's Complete Book of Baby & Child Care
