Citizenship

Healthy children (physically, mentally, educationally, financially and socially) are good citizens. Healthy children are our future.

Spoiled or Nurtured?

May 14, 2023 By Robert Saul

Spoiled?

To say that parents or other caregivers are spoiling children when they are nurturing children is to ignore basic needs and conflate some behaviors as being spoiled.

President Lincoln, thank you

March 26, 2023 By Robert Saul

Lincoln

President Abraham Lincoln stands out as one of our greatest presidents, especially given his tenure during our troubled times during the Civil War. Vilified by some but praised by most, his legacy has stood the test of time with continued scrutiny and analysis 160 years after his years as our president.
