RAISED RIGHT
“Raised right” means bringing up a child in conformity with social rules of behavior that confirm ideas about the self relative to all else.
Raised means systemic sustenance of food water shelter clothes love. Conformity means consistent with custom order expectations values. All ideas, all lives are divine from a source beyond any but the creator. Neither you nor they control may ever control divine ideas, nor acts attributed to ideas; but we try to do our best by raising children up right.
