The song "Teach your children" by Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young in 1969 is still a popular song.

You, who are on the road.
Must have a code that you can live by.
And so, become yourself.
Because the past is just a goodbye.

Teach your children well.
Their father's hell did slowly go by.
And feed them on your dreams.
The one they pick's the one you'll know by.

Don't you ever ask them, "Why?"
If they told you, you would cry.
So, just look at them and sigh.
And know they love you.

Deuteronomy 6:7 And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up. [kjv]

και προβιβασεις αυτα τους υιους σου και λαλησεις εν αυτοις καθημενος εν οικω και πορευομενος εν οδω και κοιταζομενος και διανισταμενος [lxx]
