I gathered 11 quotes about parenting that value more that thousands of pages about parenting. These are simple phrases with many meanings.
Harry S Truman
“I have found the best way to give advice to your children is to find out what they want and then advise them to do it.“
Jesse Jackson
“Your children need your presence more than your presents.“
MAD Magazine
“Teenagers are people who act like babies if they’re not treated like adults.“
John Plomp
“You know children are growing up when they start asking questions that have answers. “
Robert Brault
“The trouble with learning to parent on the job is that your child is the teacher.“
Abigail Van Buren
“If you want children to keep their feet on the ground, put some responsibility on their shoulders.“
Lane Olinghouse
“The quickest way for a parent to get a child’s attention is to sit down and look comfortable.“
Joyce Maynard
“It’s not only children who grow. Parents do too. As much as we watch to see what our children do with their lives, they are watching us to see what we do with ours. I can’t tell my children to reach for the sun. All I can do is reach for it, myself.“
Chinese Proverb
“Parents who are afraid to put their foot down usually have children who tread on their toes.“
Author Unknown
“Taking time and sharing is the essence of teaching. The future of those we cherish will be a reflection of what we model today.“
And the one I like the most:
Elaine M. Ward
“The rules for parents are but three… love, limit, and let them be.“

I feel like you do on this subject. There is plenty of good stuff out there to pile on our computers to make it safe but it is hard to stay ahead of the bad stuff. I’ve actually put some keystrokers on my computer that were supposed to protect my family. So your words are appreciated, but the picture is what caught my eye. It was perfect for the post.
