Are You Raising a GOOD Kid or a SUCCESSFUL Kid? The TRUTH Will Shock You 🤯Added:

And the theme of his sermon was, "How do you raise a good person? How do you raise a good child?" And he said, "Most parents don't ask that. Most parents, if you say to them, 'What do you want for your child?' 'I want them to be healthy.
I want them to be successful. I want them to be happy.' They don't say, 'I want them to be good.'"
But that's what traditional values in America worked for.
