To The Contrary

                         Could the young but realize how soon they will become mere walking
                         bundles of habits, they would give more heed to their conduct while in
                         the plastic state.     

William James

                         If parents and grandparents could but realize the power of their 
                         self-care as a developing model for their intensely observant 
                         children and grandchildren, they would give more heed to noticing,  
                         interrupting, and replacing their own negative self-talk and their 
                         impulsive and dysfunctional repetitive behavior.   

                         When Elders do better self-care, kids do better self-care.
