In the book

The whole aim is to raise children who will make good choices even when you are not there to see — so make your home a sanctuary built on the three or four values you cherish most, leaving room for each child's dreams and fears and mistakes. Psychological autonomy turns out to be a critical factor in all human flourishing; and — this is the lovely paradox — the more you support a child's autonomy, the more they end up cherishing the values you gave them. Now the hard weather, and I am going to be more honest here than anywhere else in this book, because family is where the deepest love and the deepest hurt live in the same house. — Family & Parenting (Family/Parenting)
