YOUTH GOAL PLANNER Strive to Obey Parents (DN5)
HOW CAN I OBEY MY PARENTS (as they lead in righteousness)?
YOUTH CAN TEACH with this YOUTH GOAL PLANNER to make an effort to listen to and do as parents ask, without being reminded for two weeks. Discuss ways to be more obedient and respectful to parents.

ADDITIONAL IDEAS:
Honoring your parents is a principle with a promise in Exodus 20:12 “Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.” You won’t appreciate this promise until you are older and cherish every breath. However, think about it, making any righteous choice can affect you not only for this life, but throughout eternity.
Elder Randy D. Funk (Of the Seventy) said, “My life has been happier because I trusted my parents’ righteous teachings.” Read HERE about his experience, not listening to his father’s advice, where he said, “Every bad consequence he mentioned happened,” and what he came to realize about his father’s wisdom.
In For the Strength of Youth, we read: “Honor your parents by showing love and respect for them. Obey them as they lead you in righteousness.”
DISCUSSION IDEAS
• Talk about Honoring and Obeying:
– Showing love and respect.
– Obey parents as they lead in righteousness.
– Happiness and joy can come when both show mutual respect.
• Discuss What Family Life Participation Can Do For the Family:
– Develops trust.
– Invites a better, kinder, more loving, agreeable atmosphere.
– Helps family members become peacemakers (avoid quarreling and tension).
– As both youth and parents show interest, it helps the family openly share thoughts and feelings (without being judgmental), creating a loving atmosphere.
• Talk about Ways to Express Love and Gratitude:
– Learn to freely express gratitude to your parents.
– Recognize the things they do for you and tell them you appreciate their sacrifices.
– Tell them you appreciate the things they do to strengthen your family.
SHOWING LOVE TO MY PARENTS
