Children Thrive When Parents Follow Religious Beliefs, Study Shows...

“I have asked you to retire from this world of yours that has been given to satan. Homes shall be a fortress against the evil. You will nourish the souls of your children within your home. Strong fathers of strong will—discipline! Mothers of good example—examples of purity and piety, and chastity!” – Our Lady of the Roses, September 13, 1975

LifeSiteNews reported on April 25, 2007:

Children with religious parents are better behaved and appear happier than children raised by parents without the influence of religious faith, a new study has shown.

The first to examine the impact of religion on the development of young children, the study was authored by John Bartkowski, a sociologist with Mississippi State University. Bartkowski's team questioned the parents and teachers of more than 16,000 children, asking the adults to rate the children--most of them age six--on self-control, frequency of poor or unhappy behavior, and their ability to respect and work with peers. The results were compared to the parents' rate of attendence at church services, how frequently they talked about faith with their child, and whether or not there was arguing over religion in the home.

The children of parents who regularly attended church services and talked with their child about religion were rated by both parents and teachers as showing better behavior, self-control skills and social skills than children from non-religious families. Children whose parents both attended church regulary were rated as having the best behavior and being the most well-adjusted.

Bartkowski attributed the impact of parental faith on children to three factors, according to a special LiveScience report published April 24. The community support provided by a religious congregation could be a help to parents in improving their parenting skills and reinforcing the guidelines they offer their children, Bartkowski said. The children might be influenced by hearing those same guidelines expressed by others and "take more to heart the messages that they get in the home."

As well, religious congregations tend to emphasize self-sacrificing, pro-family values, which could be "very, very important in shaping how parents relate to their kids, and then how children develop in response."

The sacred meaning and importance given to the role of parents by religious denominations was a third factor  identified by Bartkowski as having an impact on the well-being of children.

Disputes and arguments in the home over religion, however, were correlated with increased problems for the children. "Religion can hurt if faith is a source of conflict or tension in the family," Bartkowski said.

The study did not account for the possiblity that parents of better-behaved children would be more likely to attend a religious service, nor did it compare the impact different denominations may have on child behavior.

“We really don’t know if conservative Protestant kids are behaving better than Catholic kids or behaving better than mainline Protestant kids or Jewish kids,” Bartkowski said. The study will be published in the journal Social Science Research.

In a study examining the positive effects of religion on health, released last year, researchers found that regular church-goers tend to live longer. Published in the Journal of the American Board of Family Medicine, the study from the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center found that people who went to church at least once a week lived on average an additional two to three years over those who did not attend church regularly.

"I have chosen, My children, to call My sacred grounds a garden of roses. The rose is the perfect insignia of purity and divinity among the flowers.
"Each soul placed upon the earth, My child, is a flower that must be nourished with pure waters so that the stem may grow and be strong and the flower face of the child shall be turned upward to receive the light. We give to each parent the trust of this fragile flower, the child.” – Our Lady of the Roses, December 28, 1974

"O My children, if you could only recover the peace and quiet of spirit that was once much evident in your homes and now has been replaced by all manner of creations of satan, creations that distract the minds of the innocent, creations that have taken the knowledge of their God from the children, while fathers and mothers are lost as they run to and fro gathering all the material wealth upon earth, seeking pleasures that are soul destroyers, and setting an example that can be and lead to an abomination within the family circle.
     "The parents, the mother and the father, My children, must set a firm example to their children. When these children leave the family's home, they are subjected to all trials of error, deception, delusion, and lies."
- Our Lady of the Roses, July 24, 1976

The amazing Bayside Prophecies... http://www.tldm.org/directives/directives.htm 
These prophecies came from Jesus, Mary, and the saints to Veronica Lueken at Bayside, NY, from 1968 to 1995: 

YOUNG
"The greatest attack from satan are upon the young. All parents will be held responsible for the fall of their children's souls." - Our Lady, March 18, 1973

GUARDIAN ANGELS
"My child, mankind no longer calls to his angel guardians. Will you not, parents,
bring the knowledge of their guardians to them? If they must go out into your world, which has been given to satan, they must have their guardians with them. They are only for their calling, unless you as parents shall lift your hearts to Heaven and ask for their guardianship for your children." - Our Lady, August 14, 1975

RESPONSIBILITY
"Parents! Do not expect your clergy to come forth from their pulpits and give counsel to your children. This responsibility lies alone with you now!" - Our Lady, September 14, 1979

PRAY TOGETHER
"Pray a constant vigilance of prayer in your homes. A family that prays together will stay together! Without God in your home there will be separation and discord. A home in this fight with Lucifer cannot survive without prayer and dedication to your God." - Our Lady, June 18, 1979

SEX ED
"Why cannot we have our children pure of thought and mind? How can we, My children, when the teachers there are being taught to bring in sex education to your children? This belongs not in the schools, but in the homes. This is an obligation of the parents." - Jesus, October 2, 1987

LIGHTEN
"My children, as a Mother, My heart is tom for you. O mothers who come to Me, hearts bleeding in sorrow, I will comfort you, for I,
too, know the suffering of loss. Come to Me, all you who sorrow and weep for your children, for I will place My mantle of love and comfort upon you. Come to Me, and I will lighten your burden." - Our Lady, October 6, 1979

HEAD
"My child, you will make it known to mankind that the head of an earthly family is the father. The Father Eternal will guide the father, the head of the household.
   
"A woman of earth shall not cast aside her role as mother and housekeeper. In her role as mother, she shall be the guardian of her children's souls and a helpmate of her husband, and a guardian also of his earthly soul and the soul eternal. By her example in her household, she has the power, as woman, for good or evil. She shall stay in her home and guide her children." - St. Joseph, July 15, 1975

BIBLE
"My child and My children, you must stress the reading of your Bible. Sit down nightly with your children and teach them. Read the scriptures; you cannot allow them to go out of your homes without this knowledge or they will lose their faith." - Jesus, June 18, 1979

ENTERTAINMENT
"As I have counseled you in the past, your medias of entertainment are polluted. Your children must be protected against this pollution in pornography and exploitation of sex.
   
"O parents, you have the greatest battle now to keep the souls of your children from contamination.
   
"The eyes are the mirror of the soul, so protect your children's eyes: watch what they read and what they look upon." - Our Lady, June 16, 1977

ROCK-N-ROLL
"My children and parents, listen to Me well. You must not allow your children to listen to recordings known as 'rock and roll.' They have been specifically created by Lucifer and his agents to seduce your children.
   
"They are the major instrument for leading your children into the plague, the country-wide plague of drugs, the country-wide plague of atheism, the country-wide and world-wide plague of casting aside your God and substituting false gods and religions." - Our Lady, September 14, 1979

FATHERS
"I wish that all fathers of households stand forth and practice their role. They will use the rod and not permit their children to go astray. Firmness is needed in your world that is filled with laxity, permissiveness, and degradation.
   
"Your children have been misled by many who shall answer to the Father. As teachers they have failed in their role. Therefore, as parents you must succeed in yours." - St. Joseph, March 18, 1973

    "I must ask you all to read but a few short chapters a day now, the Book of life and love, your Bible.
