Children find themselves adrift not because the informational signposts are illegible, but because there is no one around to guide and accompany them.

It has become an accepted tenet that kids will rarely listen to their parents but seldom fail to imitate them. Communicating the message has never been a good substitute for 'showing up' and embodying the message.

What is ultimately compelling for our children in helping them conjure images of a future for themselves is our willingness to walk with them as they do it.
