"Ele não me entende", "Ela não me ama" e outros desabafos como esses estressam o relacionamento que tem tudo para ser inesquecível. Por mais bem-intencionadas e sinceras que possam ser suas ações e palavras, o casal só conseguirá comunicar-se bem se conhecer a linguagem predominante do outro.

O que estão ensinando aos nossos filhos? : uma avaliação crítica da pedagogia contemporânea apresentando a resposta da educação escolar cristã    
Call #: PORT RP 248.845 POR Portela Neto, Francisco Solano.
Published 2012

Escolas de qualquer sociedade refletem os padrões da própria sociedade que as abrigam e as mantêm. Nesse sentido, sabemos que se a estrutura da família está sendo atacada; se as âncoras de comportamento estão sendo removidas; se o encorajamento à disciplina pessoal tende a desaparecer; se o individualismo egoísta é pregado – as escolas serão meras comunidades nas quais encontraremos a mesma formação e deficiências morais, nos alunos, nos professores e até no próprio ensino. Sociedades disciplinadas e preservadoras de padrões morais abrigam escolas disciplinadas e incentivadoras da moralidade; sociedades permissivas, escolas permissivas. A sempre desejável flexibilidade, idealmente, não deve ser aleatória, mas exercitada dentro de limites transparentes e confiáveis. No meio de nossa sociedade, com bases morais cada vez mais desacreditadas e atacadas, pais que procuram dirigir os seus lares sob padrões diferentes, coerentes com a instituição da família; aqueles que se preocupam na formação de seus filhos em algo mais do que indivíduos egoístas irresponsáveis; principalmente, aqueles que se empenham no direcionamento de suas famílias sob os padrões das prescrições de Deus, encontradas nas Escrituras do Antigo e do Novo Testamento – podem chegar às raias do desespero na procura de escolas que sejam promotoras e não destruidoras de princípios básicos necessários à educação das crianças.
