Overheard on 18 Kids and Counting - Jim Bob talking about his daughter, Jessa:

"It's been said if you can train a strong-willed child to do what's right, he'll end up being strong-willed in what's right."

I hope that's how he said it. I grabbed the computer as soon as I heard it.

I realize that Jeremy isn't as naughty-natured as I used to say he was. I really try to understand from his point of view why he is being naughty and normally, it's under circumstances where he is tired. A lot of kids are naughty when they are tired.

Sometimes he is naughty just because he inherited a mischievous gleam in his eyes from his daddy, and that naughtiness is what needs to be trained out of him. But, overall, he is a sweet child and loves to be kind to people.
