This is awesome! It would take guts to stick up for the family the way this young man did! It is quite sad that he got in trouble for speaking what he believed. It was simply an editorial in the school paper for goodness sake! Have we really come to this? Check it out. It definitely inspired me to be more focused on supporting the family.

Elder Scott said:
"As an exceptional son or daughter of God, you are sorely needed. There is an urgent need for more men and women like you who will stand for principles against growing pressures to compromise. Men and women are needed who will act nobly and courageously for what the Lord has defined as right-not for what is politically correct or socially acceptable. We need individuals who have the spiritual, righteous influence that will motivate others to live honorably. We need statesmen who act with integrity, businessmen who are honest and morally clean, attorneys who defend justice and the legal system, and government officials who preserve principle because it is right. Above all, we need mothers and fathers who will preserve the sanctity and safety of the home and the integrity of the family in which faith in God and obedience to His commandments are taught as the foundation of a productive life."
