Batteries not included

As parents we are to lead our families. But if we don't take the roles and responsibilities of leaders, our children will try to fill the leadership role (even though they can't even cook mac n cheese yet), and chaos in ensues. The solution is to be leaders. Leaders led by truth not by our fickle emotions. 

We we lead, we then are able to teach our children how to lead themselves not by their roller coaster of emotions--but by truth.
