Real-life Wisdom From a Gifted Family Communicator
"As a young parent, what I needed was a flesh-and-blood veteran parent who had been there. I wanted to talk to a mom who looked like she'd been up all night once of twice, and a dad who still
had a twinkle in his eye because he remembered the good times. I wanted a parent with some scars. Maybe a bite on his index finger. Possibly a dent on her chin from a misguided fork."
