“Families talking together about mutual interests, plans, and accomplishments make for a strong united family. Families can talk about hobbies, shared memories, stories of activities, and memorable accomplishments”
Families talking create a sense of belonging, and children want to belong. And belonging to your family gives children the strength to resist cultural peer pressure leading to troublesome activities.
If membership in your family is fun, challenging, informative, important—something valuable, your family identity will last a lifetime.
