about the museum

about the museum: "The Museum of Family History's growing collection of photographs and documents has been augmented mostly from those who have expressed a keen interest in this worthwhile project.  Hopefully, much of what will be offered on this website will have appeal for children as well as adults. Perhaps it will promote storytelling from grandparents and parents to their children in the time-honored oral tradition, and will inspire each and every one of us to do more to preserve our cherished family memories for future generations."

Experiencing Teen Drama Overload? Blame Biology : NPR: "4. Move away without being rejecting. In preparation for the exit, make a comment that breaks the spell but still keeps you connected.

It could be something like "I hope you're doing OK with this. Let's talk again in an hour and see where you are."

Experiencing Teen Drama Overload? Blame Biology : NPR: "ust ask any parent of a teenager, who will likely complain about rudeness, ill manners, constant criticism and even being yelled at by their teenager.

But over the past decade, researchers have found it's not just a case of raging hormones. Teens may actually not be able to help engaging in questionable behavior. And their reactions may be, in large part, due to dramatic changes in their rapidly developing brains."
