The Spirit of a Mormon Home

"The home should be the great workshop of the Lord. Here is where children must be taught to walk in ways of truth and soberness, of love and service to each other.

The most effective examples a child will ever have—for bad or for good—are his own parents. Few of us realize how very pliable and teachable children are in their primary years of life. How quick they are to pick up parental habits and traits and teachings!" (H. Burke Peterson, "1.Harmony in the Home", Ensign, Jan. 1973, p. 114.)
