What I'm reading: The seventeen traditions

From Ralph Nader's The Seventeen Traditions:
Nader reflects on his childhood and important timeless traditions to pass on to children, including the traditions of:
  1. listening
  2. the family table
  3. health
  4. history
  5. scarcity
  6. sibling equality
  7. education and argument
  8. discipline
  9. simple enjoyments
  10. reciprocity
  11. independent thinking
  12. charity
  13. work
  14. business
  15. patriotism
  16. solitude
  17. civics
I am very grateful of my parents, grandparents, and extended family for helping instill many of these traditions during my childhood.
