Yes, there are some things that come from nature that we cannot protect them from, but most of who they are and how they grow comes from us as parents. We are the most important element in their environment.โฃโฃ
โฃโฃ
Most importantly, we have the power to control this environment. We control the culture of our homes and whatโs allowed in; from media, to people, to words. โฃโฃ
