A selection of 'Shmuleyisms'

• You can't be a good parent without being a good spouse.
• It's your kid's job to resist. It's your job to impose your will.
• Good discipline is just another form of love.
• Ten percent of life is what happens; the other 90 percent is what you do about it.
• You cannot fix your children without also fixing yourself.
• The greatest gift a man and a woman can give to their children is the gift of loving each other.
• Shalom in the home, domestic tranquility, is the ultimate blessing. The man who has a woman who believes in him is impregnable and invincible. Nothing in life can hurt him because he has peace at this center.
• There is enough uncontrollable pain in life without us unnecessarily adding self-inflicted wounds.
• The hero is not the man who conquers the world, but who conquers his own passions.
• We dare never parent out of fear. Fear is a hysterical reaction to an imagined threat, while caution is a calculated response to a real danger.
