About This Quote

I am reminded that the children we birth do not belong to us. We are simply the vessel through which they arrive on this earth. We are appointed to care for and guide them; however, we must recognize when the time comes for them to govern their own lives. In other words, as parents, it is our responsibility to raise our children as best as we can, but it is their responsibility to make good decisions once they leave our house.
