118 - Do I / we live up to these principles?

A Harvard Study: https://curiousmindmagazine.com/parents-who-raise-good-kids/

The headlines are:

Spend Quality Time - do things like reading

Be Role Model - including admitting mistakes and making time for yourself

Practice Appreciation and Gratitude

See the Big Picture - be kind, empathetic outside immediate circle
