Model of what it means to be morally courageous that he's internalizing.

The developmental age matching, I think, is important because every child that age thinks their parent doesn't understand them and never went through anything like this.

But this is she's like me.

And of course, parents are identity figures.

I'm like her.

Ascending, descending, and oscillating.

These are not about particular stories.

It's about the shape of the whole family saga, so to speak.

So this is really the family history.

So ascending, in some sense, it's the American dream.

You know, we came with nothing, we worked hard, and we succeeded.

Ta-da!

Descending is things are bad, they only got worse, things are never going to get better.

And oscillating is life happens.

There's good in life.

There's bad in life.

We will talk about the bad things that happened, but we'll also put them in the context of all of the good things that happened.

So, for example, we came, we worked hard.

Unfortunately, we didn't have as much success as we might have liked.

There were some back steps that we had to take, but we overcame.
