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.
