- Got to have time. Make time for your family. Pick one night a week and play together as a family. Take a family vacation together. Create moments with your family. And PLAY.
- Talking. Say what is in your heart. Express yourself. Listen young families. Learn that Social Media is NOT social. Having a thousand friends on the phone is not REAL friendship. Having friends is sitting down and exchanging thoughts.
- Touching. Touching is really important to human beings. Learning how to express each other through touching.
After this, we all gathered in a circle, held each other’s hands and sang Silent Night.
