[00:00:00]I think one of the things that our kids really need these days is optimism. You know, if we're talking about 50% of kids are feeling down and feeling a loss of hope of things, we got to cultivate optimism in our kids. My father-in-law would have a saying. He would be like, "Something's good's going to happen."

[00:00:13]And he would just say it out of nowhere.

[00:00:15]Like we'd be driving along and all and it would be quiet and all of a sudden he's like, "Something good is going to happen." Optimism creates a protective barrier for our mental health. Optimism.

[00:00:25]With such a mental health crisis and a constant state of anxiety and all these things, one of the things is going to be a primary thing for your kids uh in order to combat all that stuff is optimism. So, we need to cultivate it.
