"The boy who cannot put up with offenses, or who cannot accept a reprimand, even undeserved, from his superiors or parents, is still far behind in virtue." "The true Christian obeys his parents, his teachers, [and] his superiors because he sees in them God Himself, Whose place they take." "The Lord sometimes punishes negligent parents even in this life and shortens the days of disobedient children." "Raise [your children] with great care in the holy fear of God, because on this depends their health and blessings for your house." "Unfortunately, parents are not always good counselors because they are not always guided by what is best for their son’s spiritual welfare, but by worldly considerations... But if your parents live their faith, they are your best counselors because they know you intimately and their advice can be naught but good and well-founded. Generally, if you ask their advice properly, you will get it." "Obeying your parents is like obeying Our Lord, the Blessed Virgin, and St. Aloysius." "My life experience has been that only the practice of religion can assure concord in families and the happiness of those who live in this valley of tears." "Charity on the part of those who command; charity on the part of
those who obey."
