Children play with groups of friends, learn in a class with peers, compete in sporting squads and perform together in productions. Almost every aspect of childhood involves some kind of team participation – learning, playing and working together. The same is true for your family. Each family member has a unique role to play as you work towards your common goal. Each family member is equal in value, but not in authority. The team captain, coach or referee also play vital roles in establishing core values and achieving objectives. As parents, the principles you operate by will shape and guide everything your family-team does.
