Did Lehi fail as a parent? (see Deuteronomy 6:6–7, Ezekiel 3:18–19, D&C 68:25). It appears that Lehi did all he could as a parent to teach all of his children the gospel principles. Laman’s and Lemuel’s rejection of these teachings was a product of their own unwise use of agency; it was not that they had not been taught well.
