Give Your Child a Priceless Gift

Give Your Child a Priceless Gift

Here's an idea for a gift that’s worth a million bucks, but that doesn't cost a dime. Families who have tried it say it's a great way to show children you care.

All you have to do is ask your child: "What is it that you want me to give you that money can't buy?" Children usually have simple requests, like "Read to me more" or "Teach me how to … .”

Most of their responses simply mean, "Spend more time with me."
