Family Builders Friday Five: 5 Great Ways to be a Family
- Everybody helps everybody…always, in whatever ways are needed.
- Remember, “please” and “thank you” are not just good manners; they’re the calling cards of a grateful heart.
- Have a lot of fun, just not at the expense of anyone else.
- Eat as many meals together as possible as a family. Your kids will be less likely to engage in risky behavior and will get better grades in school.
- Guard the morals and integrity of everyone around you. Be sensitive about how you communicate, what you view, and whom you bring into the family circle.
Let’s talk…what do you think of these or what would you add?
