Family time quote from navigating lives journey

We live in a society that defines good parents as opportunity providers. We get our children involved in many things hoping it will help them to be well-rounded people. We also tend to equate "down" time as loss of productivity and effectiveness. Ironically, research shows that family "down" times do more to rejuvenate and inspire humans than involvement in numerous extracurricular activities. Down time can provide priceless spontaneous family connections that happen as we dream, imagine, and invent things to do together.
