Top 28 Kevin Leman Quotes
#1. How you handle peer pressure - the pressure your children feel as well as the pressure you feel - in the early years will play a significant role in how your children handle peer pressure when they become adolescents.
#2. I believe the time we really look big in a child's eyes is when we go to them and apologize for our mistakes and we say, 'I was wrong. Will you forgive me?'
#3. Everything is more effective when it's done in love rather than anger. Love really is a decision.
#4. Your home needs to be a place where your kids can fail - and learn from their failure. Surround them with love, show them how important they are to you, but don't try to undo their failures. It's not our job as parents to get our kids off the hook.
#5. Love is a cognitive, willful act. Feelings have very little to do with it, particularly around three o'clock in the morning when the baby needs changing or somebody has "lost it" before getting to the bathroom to throw up.
#6. Big businesses are beginning to realize that the employee who puts his job before his home life is not as effective as the one who has a happy, fulfilling marriage.
#7. A sexually fulfilled husband will do anything for you.
#8. Within the heart of every boy is an adventurer.
#9. If you want to improve your sex life as a couple, you need to examine your relationship outside the bedroom. What are you doing that is keeping you from sexual intimacy?
#10. I believe that love takes time. I believe there is such a thing as infatuation at first sight, but not love at first sight.
#11. Nobody's sex life is such that every experience is a ten. You may have to be satisfied with regular eights or sixes and even an occasional three.
#12. How parents interact with each child as he or she enters the family circle determines in great part that child's final destiny.
#13. I didn't have to be a slave to the worst tendencies of my personality.
#14. Good sex is an all-day affair. You can't treat your wife like a servant and expect her to be eager to sleep with you at night. Your wife's sexual responsiveness will be determined by how willingly you help out with the dishes, the kids' homework, or that leaky faucet that drips throughout the night.
#15. If you give your people halfhearted leadership, you'll get a halfhearted following. But if you invest yourself in them, if you have a heart for them, your people will return your investment with a heartfelt following.
#16. That's the way it is with firstborns. Mom and Dad may think they're in charge, but the firstborn knows better, and so does the youngest sibling.
#17. Sex is all that it can and should be only when it is surrounded by and wrapped in love.
#18. Most arguments with teenagers are setups. Your darling, simply stated, is manipulating you.
#19. Women are not for using. Women are for loving.
#20. The older your teenagers are, the more they will have their own ideas and opinions. If you take them seriously, rather than assuming your ideas are always best and the only ones, you will begin to grow a relationship that will extend beyond the hormone-group years.
#21. Reality discipline steers a course between an authoritarian style and a permissive style, giving kids some choices but also holding them accountable.
#22. The only way we can ever teach a child to say "I'm sorry" is for him to hear it from our lips first.
#23. Your child needs not only your attention but also a relationship with you.
#24. Think about and meditate on things you are thankful for. More importantly, think about people you are thankful for and why.
#25. Life is a pressure cooker and whether you remain serene or become stressed-out depends on how you handle that pressure.
#26. Every child lives up to the expectation you have for him.
#27. A fulfilling sex life is one of the most powerful marital glues a couple can have.
#28. The problem with guilt is that it cements you to the past.
