Excerpt from How to Prepare Your Child for First Holy Communion
Please don't leave it to the Sisters. They can never do it as well as you, and certainly, not without you. They can help you, but only if you do your part first.
Your child is your flesh and blood, not theirs. During his first fifteen years he spends ten times as many hours at home as in church and school combined. You, his par ents, are the greatest single forming influence in his life. You are his first, his best, his most influential teachers. You are his hero and heroine in spite of all you may hear of what Sister said.
Your relationship with your child is the most important relationship in his life. The influence of your mind upon his mind, of your personality upon his personality, of your character upon his character, is greater than that of all the Sisters who will ever share in molding his spirit. You are the divinely-appointed living means of communi cation between God and your child.
