This column is inspired by a 1970 song by Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young that urged parents to "teach your children well."
I've been thinking about that song often as I've wondered how my relatives who were stuck at home during World War II dealt with restrictions similar to what we're encountering with COVID-19.
They tried to tell me, but I've forgotten so much.
That regret prompts this column to inspire you to open up with your younger family members about the hardships you now are encountering just in case they later encounter something similar in their adult lives.
