Time spent with your children is precious. Just being at home regularly and talking about whatever, is sufficient for the emotional development and comfort of every member of the family. Just talk.


This family saga is about an ordinary family's cohesiveness, strength, ambition and determination that made it possible for within one generation to climb the slippery, ramshackle ladder from deprivation to the security of American middle-class. The story accentuates what has been said by many others, that poverty is more a matter of perception and relativity; that with understanding one's situation thoroughly, one might find a way from victim to mastery through right thinking, right actions and reciprocity. The author is not seeking to assert that everyone can bootstrap a way out of poverty. There are places and situations so bereft of opportunities, where poverty is so abject, it will be a travesty to even suggest that behaviors on their part could lift them out. With Several years of experience as a Commissioned police officer and a second career as a Child Protective Investigations Program Administrator, the author, having visited the homes of thousands of families, interviewing many, many more individuals, has come to believe what for some is already known at an intellectual level, that there are no perfect families.
