Family Profile: “We Don’t Have Time to Be Bored!”

Sonny: If the girls have a problem, we sit down as a family and discuss it. We’re always open with one another, and we base our decisions on Bible principles. Ynez and I also try to make sure that the girls have good, mature associates. Our friends are their friends, and their friends are ours.

Ynez: We stay active, and we do things together as a family. As Jehovah’s Witnesses, we’re busy with the ministry, personal and family Bible study, and volunteer work​—including disaster relief and Kingdom Hall construction. We also balance all of this with good recreation. We don’t have time to be bored!

Kellsie: My dad is a good listener, and he always consults the whole family before making a big decision. My mom is always there for me whenever I need help​—or just to talk.

Samantha: My mom makes me feel so special, so loved, so important​—even when she doesn’t realize it. She listens. She cares. I wouldn’t trade our friendship for anything.
