  • CHILDHOOD, SENIORHOOD, CARING ABOUT BOTH, and the "SCORE" OF LIFE

    CHILDHOOD, SENIORHOOD, CARING ABOUT BOTH, and the "SCORE" OF LIFE
    Jun 7 2025
    In this episode, the Eyres apply the sports or music term "score" to life and to its phases. They make the point that most of us have stewardship both over family members in their childhood and family members in their seniorhood, and that the two are both overwhelmingly important and should both be given highest priority.

Can we shift in life's second half from a focus on doing to a focus on being, and what roles are most important to play well? For more, visit https://valuesparenting.com/how-to-live/.
