Food for Family Thought

Odds are you learned about right and wrong through life rather than lectures. Seek out experiential opportunities that convey your values to your child—by helping others together, by watching how you talk about those who are less fortunate, by treating all people you encounter with respect.

In your opinion, what is the most important thing your kids have taught you to this point?
