The Kindness Kilometer

The Kindness Kilometer

by Ben Springer, PhD | Dec 13, 2019 | Mental Health, Parent Training, Professional Development, Resilience

All we should want for the Holidays is kindness.  I don’t know if my claim is cliché or whatever, but I also don’t care if it is. I am never more proud of the kids with whom I work or my own children when I observe them being kind to one another. I don’t mean some...
