-Don’t be too quick to turn your children into adults. Let them enjoy the good years. Childhood only happens once.

-Give your kids a chance to be happy. Not merely on your terms and not merely on theirs.

-Love is self-giving. Being a parent makes that obvious. Be the love your child needs.

-Teach your kids to be rational and compassionate. Their future (which is the future of humanity) depends on it.

-There are three things to leave behind to your kids: money, wisdom, and good memories.
