If you want to bring a smile to your child's face, the best gift you can give is your presence. Just "showing up" has far-reaching and long-term benefits for a child's well-being.
New information from Heritage's FamilyFacts.org reports that children whose parents are present at key times in the day-when they wake up, go to school, and return home from school-are less likely to experience emotional distress. Likewise, those whose parents are more involved and responsive tend to have higher self-esteem and to be less susceptible to negative peer pressure.
Important issues affecting families is shared daily on the one-minute "Family Facts" radio feature. In addition, we have created a new weekly e-source for station partners titled, On Monday. We trust that this new resource which includes timely news and the latest research provides helpful talking points to share with your audience, on-air and at your social networking sites.
