FAMILY

The Virtues Project helps parents to awaken the qualities of character that exist in potential in their children. By speaking the language of virtues, setting virtues-based boundaries and recognizing teachable moments, we bring out the best in our children -- and ourselves. We become mentors helping our children to become compassionate, courageous, respectful, confident and purposeful.

The greatest gift we can give our children is the authentic self-esteem that comes from developing their virtues. We are human beings full of virtues. When we acknowledge a virtue, the motivation behind a positive action, we nurture true self-esteem and help virtues to grow.

Parents are always saying children don’t come with a guidebook. This is one!
— Oprah Winfrey

Parents are always saying children don't come with a guidebook. This is one! This helps you get them on the right track of leading a good life."
