Do you have family bonding activities?
Are they getting enough hugs andaffirmation from their significantelders? (parents, guardians,grandparents)
Do they have exclusive time with you?
How is their free time being spent?
Do they have spiritual enrichment ornourishment? (An evening familyprayer, Sunday school, Sunday Mass)
Do they have friends other thanclassmates or cousins?Children or even adults need to have abalanced healthy kind of life that will helpnourish their entire system and the wholehuman personality . Young children must beexposed to a positive and wholesomeenvironment and activities.Food on the table is not the only concernhere but equally important also are thethings that will nourish the emotional,spiritual, social, and mental state of being.
