[quote=Anonymous]- They have a parent or grandma at home when they walk in. 
- They have a snack ready when they come home. 
- We cook a lot and we are always feeding everyone - friends, family and neighbors, so they have many options for hot meals. 
- We watch TV together, huddled in blankets in our family room. 
- My house is lit everywhere as soon as it gets dark because we have most of our lamps on timers. I hate a dark house or room. - - We have some normal clutter, but the house is cleaned up every day, beds are made, clothes are laundered, folded and put in dressers every day. 
- DH and I, both are very involved with our children and both can cook.
- DH and I have a great relationship and we are very loving. Kids know that their parents are solid
- No addiction, abuse, personality disorders, adultery in our house. Yes, we have seen what happens if that dynamic is present in your family. 
- All of us have our own hobbies and interests and we pursue it
- My kids and DH are high achievers but that is the work day...they recharge at home and they have the freedom to do what they want, while still being a part of the family.
- We kiss and hug a lot.  Kids are our first priority.  We have a large social network of family and friends. 
- We have certain holidays fixed with the family. 
- We love to eat out so we are always going out to eat for all kinds of things with our extended family and we make very solemn toasts with a straight face - straight A's, graduation, birthdays, got driver's license, did not get totally creamed at a tennis match, went on a date etc...
