Mothers prepare children to live within the home.  Fathers prepare children to live outside the home.

First Comes Love– Brinley/Ogletree pg 89

It is noteworthy that these callings-husband and father, wife and mother-are the most important “offices” you will ever hold in mortal life or in eternity. Of all the titles by which our Heavenly Father could be addressed, He prefers the title “Father.” Elder H. Burke Peterson made this point: “In this life a father is never released from his responsibility. We call bishops, and they serve for a time and are released. Stake presidents likewise are called, serve, and are released. But a father’s calling is an eternal calling if he lives worthily” (“The Father’s Duty to Foster the Welfare of His Family,” Ensign, Nov. 1977, 87). Of course, the same principle holds true for wives and mothers. These are eternal callings.

We teach our children all about life, they teach us what life is all about.
