#3 Heroes aren't always the soldiers or generals fighting on the battlefield. Sometimes they're ordinary people who stand up and do the righht thing.

God bless you Irena Sendler.

#4 Aye God bless her. The kind of person I want my sons to imitate, both for bravery and compassion.

#5 OT
Which do you teach first? I went with compassion first... but I may be wrong.

#6 Shipman:

Both, at once, in parallel, along with honesty and faith in God. All virtues have their proper place, and all contribute to character development.

#7 Okay....
Compassion, honesty, faith.. in parallel..

I'll assume bravery will fall into place.

Sounds good to me.

#8 Shipman,
Bravery is the product of integrity, the unification of compassion, honesty, and faith.

#9 OP, I'd venture to say that faith is optional.

#10 Bulldog, you have to have faith in something, yourself if nothing else. Otherwise, you're lost without a reference point. Kind of like living in pea-soup fog in the middle of a swamp.
