The enforced associations of family life stabilize [[personality]] and stimulate its growth through the compulsion of necessitous adjustment to other and diverse personalities. But even more, a true [[family]]--a good family--reveals to the parental procreators the [[attitude]] of the [[Creator]] to his children, while at the same time such true parents portray to their children the first of a long series of [[ascending]] disclosures of the [[love]] of the [[Paradise]] parent of all [[universe]] children.[http://www.urantia.org/cgi-bin/webglimpse/mfs/usr/local/www/data/papers?link=http://mercy.urantia.org/papers/paper84.html&file=/usr/local/www/data/papers/paper84.html&line=182#mfs]
