"Focus on family spirit and not family image."

What an important and thought-provoking mantra, especially in a world where image seems to be everything. 

But how do we do this?  “It’s not easy,” says Laura Gauld; “and it’s usually a struggle or challenge in the family that gets us to the point of understanding that each family does have a family spirit, and that family spirit is more important than our family image.”

The mantras in this podcast are:

Plan an activity with each child. Value and expect manners Teach a firm handshake and eye contact. Teach a family motto and live it. Focus on family spirit and not family image.
