One of the rituals I have instituted in my family is to look at pictures together &#8211; it is an opportunity to keep the memory of shared quality time fresh.

		<description><![CDATA[Perception is more than seeing. It is mixing the stimuli with existing concepts to see things that are only partially there. This is what enables you to see the letter &#8220;E&#8221; to the right, or to understand a conversation over a bad phone connection. Being good at this helps to pick up on subliminal clues [...]]]></description>

In fact, Star Wars has so many layers that I can only present you with a sampling of ideas for discussion after watching this movie.

		<description><![CDATA[Praise is so powerful. It makes us proud. It focuses our attention on the feature that was cause for the praise. It helps define us. Parents who praise are not stigmatized (unlike parents who punish). No wonder, then, that parents use this powerful tool liberally. But as Po Bronson points out in his recent book, [...]]]></description>

If you are watching the movie with your kids, you should take the opportunity to talk with them about it.

		<description><![CDATA[Trust is the most important good. Do not break promises, agreements or rules. All rules and decisions are man-made and up for discussion.

Conflicts are normal, but [...]]]></description>

Frequently, it is attributed to talent, genius, or other inherent traits. There is evidence that the attribution of success to intrinsics is harmful. Gladwell goes one step further and makes the point that it [...]]]></description>

According to this theory, there are 3 major factors to think about when naming a baby: uniqueness, fit, and goodwill. Uniqueness is fairly self-explanatory, according to this graphic it depends on the name&#8217;s [...]]]></description>
