    Our kids will develop a work ethic only if we require them to pay a portion of the cost of some of the things they want. They’ll learn to defer gratification the moment we stop routinely pulling out our wallets. And they’ll learn self-discipline only if we care enough to enforce reasonable limits.
    Fred G. Gosman (20th century)

    Truly it is reasonable to make a great distinction between the faults that come from our weakness and those that come from our wickedness.
