Case Study Report In 1-2 page(s), write a response that responds appropriately to the requirements and questions for the case study that you have chosen.

Samantha should respond to Jen by telling her in detail what the professor actually meant. The professor was going by what the family a proclamation says, “Happiness in family life is most likely to be achieved when founded upon the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ. Successful marriages and families are established and maintained on principles of faith, prayer, repentance, forgiveness, respect, love, compassion, work, and wholesome recreational activities.” This statement is true. But it also does not mean that anyone who is not a part of this church is not happy. This is just saying that in most cases, the teachings of the church and a Christ centered home leads to the most stable and happy family lifestyles.

A family is not defined by their materialistic items. In the talk, “the finest homes”, elder clayton tells us what does not supply happiness in the home. He says, “These homes aren’t made fine in any important or lasting way by their furniture or by the net worth or social status of the people who own them.” What makes a home “fine” are the personal qualities everyone in the family possesses. The values are what make a home fine. As husband and wife, we have responsibilities to bring the gospel into our home and teach the doctrines. As it says in the talk, “women and gospel learning in the home” it says “you are part—a key part—of the family of God and of your own family”. He makes sure to say that keeping our values and teachings in the home centered around the gospel is a key part of having a happy family life. Life is not perfect, and just because Jen’s siblings fell away from the church does not mean it was the parent’s fault. IF they did all in their ability to teach the truths and nurture the children with the spirit, that is all they can do.
