I have a little course online, Raising Relational Boys and Girls.

We can insist.

on more relationality.

We can create, like a pick in basketball, we can create a relationally cherishing subculture around our children, friends, family, teach them, go into school and do an anti-bullying campaign.

We can consciously download this to our kids and be explicit about it.

Go to them and be explicit and let them teach you.

But find people who are happy.

Teach our kids how to be relational.
