“Being natural and matter-of-fact about nudity prevents your children from developing an attitude of shame or disgust about the human body. If parents are very secretive about their bodies and go to great lengths to prevent their children from ever seeing a buttock or breast, children will wonder what is so unusual, and even alarming, about human nudity.” IfsHumansChildrenMatterFactsBodyParentNaturalAttitudeWonderSeeingShameOur ChildrenDevelopingYour ChildrenBreastsLengthUnusualDisgustingHuman BodyMatter Of FactNuditySecretiveButtocksBeing NaturalNudists Author:Lee Salk
“A large portion of Christ's miracles of love were wrought at the urgent request of parents for their suffering children. Is that ear gone deaf to-day?

“We have scarcely gotten home ... when our children's sneezes greet us, skinned knees bleed after waiting all day to do so.

“The importance of the development of the emotional body is hardly recognized today. We are pretty much left to our own devices to come to full adulthood, whether man or woman. Our elders may have become so denatured themselves from a lack of such nurturance that there is no longer a collective knowledge of how to guide the awakening emotional vitality and authenticity of our young people, our children.

“Through the blur, I wondered if I was alone or if other parents felt the same way I did - that everything involving our children was painful in some way. The emotions, whether they were joy, sorrow, love or pride, were so deep and sharp that in the end they left you raw, exposed and yes, in pain. The human heart was not designed to beat outside the human body and yet, each child represented just that - a parent's heart bared, beating forever outside its chest.” IfsWayHumansHeartChildrenEndsBodyPainJoyLeftFeltParentEmotionForeverPrideMomSorrowBeatsOur ChildrenParentingPainfulMotherhoodChestsExposedAutismHuman HeartHuman BodyFunny InspirationalInvolvingBeing A MotherBlurBeing A ParentInspirational ParentingParenthood FunnyInspirational ParentsI Love My ParentsSorrow LoveI Love Being A Mother Author:Debra Ginsberg
“It is neither easy nor agreeable to dredge this abyss of viciousness, and yet I think it must be done, because what could be perpetrated yesterday could be attempted again tomorrow, could overwhelm us and our children. One is tempted to turn away with a grimace and close one's mind: this is a temptation one must resist. In fact, the existence of the death squads had a meaning, a message: 'We, the master race, are your destroyers, but you are no better than we are; if we so wish, and we do so wish, we can destroy not only your bodies, but also your souls, just as we have destroyed ours.” IfsThinkingMindChildrenSoulDoneFactsBodyTurnsWishEasyRaceExistenceMastersTomorrowMessagesOur ChildrenYour BodyYesterdayTemptationDestroyedYour SoulAbyssTemptedDestroyersSquadGrimace Author:Primo Levi
“I believe that the most urgent need of parents today is to instill in our children a moral vision: what does it mean to be a good person, an excellent neighbor, a compassionate heart? What does it mean to say that God exits, that He loves us and He cares for us? What does it mean to love and forgive each other? Parents and caregivers of children must play a primary role in returning our society to a healthy sense of the sacred. We must commit to feeding our children’s souls in the same way we commit to feeding their bodies.” WayNeedsBelieveHeartMeanChildrenPersonsDoeSoulPlayBodyCareTodayI BelieveParentMoralVisionRolesHealthyOur ChildrenSacredForgivingNeighborCommitPrimariesExcellentOur SocietyCompassionateFeedingUrgentGood PersonExitInstillBeing A Good PersonCaregivers Author:Marianne Williamson
“We cannot build on peace on blood. We are still so addicted to this lie. We have this fantasy that we honor the dead by adding to their number.
