"And ye will not suffer your children that they go hungry, or naked; neither will ye suffer that they transgress the laws of God, and fight and quarrel one with another, and serve the devil, who is the master of sin, or who is the evil spirit which hath been spoken of by our fathers, he being an enemy to all righteousness."

Discipline
So, the other day, my babysitters (a set of sisters) came to my house to interview me about being a parent for a report one of them was doing for school. In the conversation I asked them how their parents disciplined them. They said they had to write scriptures down 10x's whenever they did something wrong. So, this post is to start collecting the scriptures my kids will use as I implement this new program. My kids are little, so for now, we'll just say the scripture out loud together 3x's.
When they fight and quarrel, we'll do Mosiah 4:14 (from The Book of Mormon):

That is a fantastic scripture! And a great idea. We may need to do this too. The quarreling puts us all in a bad mood so quickly.
My dad made us quote that whenever we argued and I still roll my eyes when I hear it - but now it's a fond memory. I always had visions of naked children running around!
