Parenting and Child Health Topics:

Family Well Being

“At work, you think of the children you have left at home. At home, you think of the work you've left unfinished. Such a struggle is unleashed within yourself. Your heart is rent.”
    - Golda Meir


If you think about it, a basic day is like a sandwich: our family is the bread at the start and end of each day and the filler is a mix of carpools, work, events, and errands. When a sandwich overflows, we take out some of the middle. Perhaps that’s not a bad model for what to do when our family sandwich seems unwieldy.
