Welcome from the Glocal Family!

We're on a mission to be a globally-aware family raising a globally-aware child. We want to know how being glocal, that is, thinking globally while acting locally, impacts where we live, the lifestyle we embrace, the products we consume, the food we eat, and every other aspect of our daily lives, because we want to be able to say that we live lives that serve the greater good. We invite you to join us on this journey of discovery. Set up a profile, comment on our posts, and share your own glocal journey. Together, we'll make our world a better place. - Joe & Anita

This week Joe and Anita return after a few weeks away and attempt to explain their mysterious absence, in the process, they link back to a couple previous episodes and hit at a Glocal Family adventure that's in the works.

They also introduce the idea of "Eastern" Parenting, which really isn't Eastern, but came to life in an interview with Naomi Aldort. As a means of exploring this approach to parenting, they point out some issues they have today, and offer some practical ways they're trying to implement "Eastern" Parenting with Robbie.
