Family values refers to a set of common beliefs held by those who believe the family is the cornerstone of society.
Family values often overlap with Conservative or Small Town Values and include:
- Opposition to homosexual indoctrination
- Pro-life beliefs
- Belief in the importance of Christian religion and prayer in everyday life
- An emphasis on truth, rather than deceit, and humility rather than elitism
- An emphasis on hard-work and strong personal character
- An emphasis on personal responsibility
- Belief that parents, and not government, know what is best for their children
- Emphasis on self reliance, not dependent on government handouts
Liberals typically mock these values in an elitist fashion, and smear those who hold family values as racist or red-necks, when the opposite is true.
