Don't be a jerk to your family! Be the best version of you when you're at home.

Talking Points:

  • Family is a blessing so quit treating them like an obligation. Your family loves you and wants to help you in life. 
  • It’s okay if you don’t see eye to eye on everything but give the best version of yourself to your family. Don’t be a jerk just because you’re in a bad mood.
  • When you’re having a bad day, let your family help you through it. When a family member is having a bad day, you should help them through it!
