The Family: A Proclamation to the World
On Motherhood:
- love and care for children
- rear children in love and righteousness
- provide for physical and spiritual needs
- teach them to love one another, observe the commandments, be law abiding citizens
- Mothers are primarily responsible for the nurture of the children
As mother's we are primarily responsible for the nurturing of our children. To nurture means to "feed and protect," "to support and encourage ..., " "to bring up; train; educate." This is no easy task. We are born with the capability we need in order to nurture our children. While, as mothers, we are not at this task alone, we are counseled to make it our primary responsibility. It takes conscience effort each day to make this work. I have to consciencely realize that everything I do will be translated and emulated by my children.
