I am Mormon, but feel that this message doesn't care what religion you are. It's good for any parent to hear and be reminded of, I know I needed to hear it again.
I live with my uncle and his family and what makes me really sad is that they do not sit with each other to have meals, the kids do not talk to their parents and I feel that this can have a negative effect on the kids in their future. When I was a kid I really loved that my parents would ask me about my day during our meal and we could have wonderful discussions where we all contributed.
When I'm thinking already on ways to teach my only one year old daughter the ways of life, this message is such a great inspiration for my and my daughters future.
Are you there? Do you hear me? Do you even care? I miss my children and I miss my Savior. " is anybody there...does anybody care?" I would love to listen if they would only talk.
Even though I am single with no children, I know that my nephews will depend on me and look to me for an example. These words are for all adults who mentor kids... you never know who is watching.
I really appreciate Elder Hales choice of message on parenting. Dr. Gabor Mate is a doctor and addiction specialist, and says most addictions come from trauma during childhood. Parenting is critical. If we truly value our children we will make them our top priority. Thanks Elder Hales.
I was lost and living a roller coaster life of addiction until I witnessed my daughter come into the world. Through the power of our savior Jesus Christ and his atoning sacrifice, I was blessed with a beautiful daughter that gave me the desire to change and try my best to set a righteous example for her. I believe when we are face to face with our creator, one question that might be asked is.... What type of Father and example were u for your kids?
What a wonderful reminder that each child needs us! I loved this! My grandson and my daughter sent the link to me. I am so proud to be a Mormon and have these wonderful teachings touch me and my family's lives.
There is nothing greater than being a parent. Letting my children know I love them everyday is something I know they need to know and hear individually and that I will always love them no matter what decisions they make in life. I played hide and seek tonight with my kids and the wife before bed. I know that just that little bit of time makes all the difference in how your children turn out. I am grateful for every moment I have to spend time with those little ones.
Wonderful message...we often get so wrapped up in our daily life that we forget to slow down and reach out to our youth. God bless those who listen to this message!
Thank You for this wonderful Message!! I hope that every one gets to hear this and that Parents can finally understand how important it is for them "to be there" for their children.
great thing! I am not a mormon but with this great feeling I WANT to realize what is true religion or church of Jesus Christ. Some day for sure I will be a member of this great church with all of my family members. I really, really appreciate your great work for subtitles, for me like foreigners who are not quite familiar with spoken English, these subtitles really, really help me understand this great and wonderful message. Thanks a million! Heavenly Father really loves this church.
Lilac Shin I hope you made your hope of joining our church becuase it would be one of the most important decision you could make. God loves you and wants you to come unto him. If you still have a disire and have not going I invite you too and to talk with the missionaries.
I am no spiritual person but this video was touching. I mean it is so easy to talk to your child. I have to spend at least a couple hours a day chilling with my daughters =]
I hope that this message finds you now active again in the Church. I know that God will accept you. I know because I have felt his love and his forgiveness. But you need to know to forgive yourself. If you followed your heart when you first posted this then you did the right thing for you and your family! I hope all is well and I hope you know that Heavenly Father loves you no matter what!
those that disliked the video were either those who openly oppose the LDS church or those who watched this video but not listen to what it said. if you are either of those watch it again with an open mind and new perspective.
@papadonto8 I've struggled with the feelings of being alone. With the feeling that no one and nothing would change if I were to wander out into the desert and never come back.. Every person no matter their situation makes a profound if unnoticed difference in the lives of the people around them that we just dont know or understand. God is with us and so are many people whose lives we touch without thinking about it. You are not alone. Yes people care. Yes god hears you.
Kids grow up way too fast...zip and a pop and they are gone....it is so important to spend the time we have with each of our children. Life is so short.
@DanceInYourRoom - Thanks for watching the video. I would encourage you to do some of your own research and see for yourself. I admire many Muslims that I know personally. We are similar in our respect for family, and in the fact that our religion affects our daily lives. However, in our teachings, we are very different, as you will see when you look for yourself.

Becoming conscious of hurtful patterns and being willing to change those patterns is the greatest gift we can give children"

This message reminds me that I am a Father and my responsibility to my family. It is always nice to have a gentle reminder of who you are.
Children are treasure in the hand of God 🙏❤
Very emotional and touching. I fear that family values are eroding and might never come back.
We love you Elder Hale 😊
I am the mother of SIX children. Thank you! for this wonderful loving counsel. I along with my husband will GO and DO!
This should be America's Goal. Not so much the mormonism part but what pushes and can help our soldiers families that are so broken from so much war.
Wonderful message...we often get so wrapped up in our daily life that we forget to slow down and reach out to our youth. God bless those who listen to this message!
Doctrine and Covenants 93:40 "But I have commanded you to bring up your children in light and truth."
Thanks Mom and Dad for listening, and listening some more!
What a beautiful message!
A beautiful message. Families are incredibly more important than the world's made me think. Thank you for sharing this.
Thank You for this wonderful Message!! I hope that every one gets to hear this and that Parents can finally understand how important it is for them "to be there" for their children.
This should be someting to everyone do, no matter the religion
This is a wonderful message. I always feel fulfilled and rewarded in every way when I take the time to listen, to really listen and be there.
It is important to spend time listening to family members, even though it is hard to balance different aspects of our lives.

Religion has nothing to do with this message. Well thought out. The visuals enhance the impact on the audience.
I haven't cried in a while
Nice video reminder to really be there in our relationships with family. It struck me that these ideas can be applied in all our relationships.
Thank you. I must say that I agree with this ad.

@MereMessenger I agree! And that's the best part. By growing closer to God, you grow closer to the family.
