Families that work well - Guiding our children, our way - Aboriginal Parenting WA Guides (2012) [INFORMATION SHEET]

Our family is the most important part of our kids’ lives.
Our family, including our extended family, have a big influence on how well our kids are able to cope with the things they have to face in life. As they get older it is important for them to be a part of family tasks.
Our family is our heart, beating for us as a people, and it carries our culture on. This binds us together in everything we do, what we say, and what we understand.
A loving and caring family circle can help kids have a good feeling about themselves and a good regard for others. In an unhappy family, kids can often feel bad about themselves and couldn’t care less about others.
