As humanity has progressed intellectually and technologically, it sometimes feels as though we have lost as much as we have gained... This feeling seems to suggest that we should take a break from our daily routines and thoughts, and return to simple but meaningful acts that are the basis for a successful family and relationship. You’ll find the best examples of this behavior in the animal kingdom, where you can find plenty of special practices and principles that you should definitely know about...

1. Education for success with a security net

2. It takes a village…

3. Mutual responsibility

4. Patience and concern

5. A loyal relationship

6. Finding “the one”

7. Love at first sight – for the children

8. Less talk more action

9. Giving quality gifts to your partner - for the children

10. Be who you are

11. Working together

12. Apologies and forgiveness

13. Taking care of the kids

14. Discipline

15. Paying full attention to children and maintaining contact with parents
