“Let us . . . honor the special place of the family. As James Q. Wilson wrote:“ ‘We learn to cope with the people of this world because we learn to cope with the members of our family. Those who flee the family flee the world; bereft of the [family’s] affection, tutelage, and challenges, they are unprepared for the [world’s] tests, judgments, and demands’ (The Moral Sense [1993], 163).”
Neal A. Maxwell, “The Tugs and Pulls of the World,” Liahona, Jan 2001, 43–46
So I'm hoping that because Parks and Maddie are (hopefully) learning how to deal with each other, that they'll be better prepared to deal with others in the world. Unless those others make them mad. Then watch out.

when I was little we had this book called "No Fighting, No Biting" and it was awesome. I think it included alligators.
