Thanks, Sandra for linking to Michele's post. Thank you, Michele for your post. For some reason it brought tears to my eyes, the good kind when you remember the gift of the Atonement and are sooo very glad that it is real and works!

Kimberly,
Right there with you (unfortunately) on the difficult time you're facing with your son. It is so hard and heartbreaking. We have a very love you /want to strangle you relationship going with our teens right now.
At the Sunday morning session of our conference Elder Holland said (and this is a direct quote), "the entire youth program of the church can be summed up in one phrase---don't do anything stupid!"

Amen. But they do it anyway :(

Michele, thank you for writing this talk down and highlighting some of Elder Holland's points. It sounds like an absolutely wonderful talk! Elder Holland is SO awesome. He gives the best talks in General Conference and I've been able to see others as a seminary teacher at special CES conferences.
And most of all, I can certainly use his message right now since my husband and I (he's a bishop,too!) are going through a terrible time with our youngest son. I've already hunkered down for the storm, but it ain't easy and there are lots of tears.
Elder Holland pounding the pulpit reminded me of a year and a half ago when Elder Oaks was at our stake conference. He was telling the youth not to pierce their bodies or get tattoos and how unappealing and immodest and dumb it was. He added emphatically, "Don't do it - don't be stupid!"

Thanks, Sandra. I'm going to hop on over and read ...

Wow, Michelle. I just love it when we get to sit at the feet of the aposltles and listen to them talk. I am linking to this post from mine today (the 15th) as it is so relevant to what I was talking about. Thanks for sharing with us.
