“Understanding child development takes the emphasis away from the child's character--looking at the child as good or bad. The emphasis is put on behavior as communication. Discipline is thus seen as problem-solving.

“I think that what I was talking about was that as a woman growing up in a Mormon tradition in Salt Lake City, Utah, we were taught - and we are still led to believe - that the most important value is obedience. But that obedience in the name of religion or patriotism ultimately takes our souls.

This woe is pronounced upon those who would pervert standards of mortality and decency. They seek man’s approval of that which God had condemned.

“Because of the lingering discrimination, many women still lack confidence. They live in fear of stepping beyond what they feel is acceptable 'female' behavior. I can remember feeling that I wasn't 'normal' because I was aggressive, had dreams and goals, and wanted do do great things...I am glad now that I found courage to do something radical and chase my dreams.” FeelsStillsI CanFeelingsDreamWantedRememberFoundGoalBehaviorNormalFemaleGladDiscriminationGreat ThingsRadicalAggressiveAcceptableLingeringDreams And Goals Author:Joyce Meyer
