‘That it may go well with you and you may endure a long time on the earth.’”​—Eph. 6:1-3.

Further, it is in your own best interests to honor and obey your parents. This is indicated by the very words of the Fifth Commandment, namely, “that your days may prove long upon the ground that Jehovah your God is giving you.” God has promised a new system of things in which “death will be no more.” To qualify for life in that new system, youths must obey their parents.​—Rev. 21:3, 4.
