You want your child to grow up healthy, happy and successful.   You – the parent – are the key. 

Regardless of time spent in school, the influences of television and peer pressure, you are the most important person in your child’s life. You are his/her key to success. 

What can you do that has a real, positive impact? 

One sure winner is "Catch 22".   Catch your child for 22 minutes a day, every day. 

Talk with them, take a walk, do the dishes together. Communicate in words, smiles and the way you spend your time together that he/she is a priority in your life. 

Maybe you spend more than 22 minutes a day now with your child. You may want to look over the last week: 

• How much time were you together?
   

• When you were together, was your mind on your child or on other things?
   

• Did your child get to choose how you spent part of your time together?
   

• Did you both have fun?
   

• Did you learn something new about one another?

·      The time your child spends with you is powerful. You are your child’s first and most important teacher. The lessons your child learns from you about values, people and herself/himself will last a lifetime.
