My ex used to do this 24/7 but I found that he is a narcissist and our ethics were very different. So he would try to say things like an eye for an eye if he steals I'm taking something of his. and he would try to convince me that it was okay to be violent and thuggish.

Hi Gretchen, My suggestion for a family ritual is maybe more habit than ritual, but it is incredibly cozy, builds family memories, and gives you a lot of those "inside jokes". So my suggestion is to Read Aloud every evening to the family. I know it sounds daunting to someone who isn't comfortable reading aloud but it's really worth a try, and young kids aren't usually critical about reading skill :) Tailor the books you choose to your kids ages, and also to Your prefrenses! For example, I won't read The Borrowers series, even tho many enjoy it, because I don't care for them, but I've read appropriate Robin McKinley books to 7 year-olds because I love them! The amount of time you read each evening will vary, and don't worry if you can't do longer reads for weeks at a time, life is sometimes crowded! On the other hand, sometimes you might read for an hour & 1/2 when time and interest combine. You'll have your own favorite books to share, but for sugestions or reminders, my favorite reference is "The Read-aloud handbook" by Jim Trelease. I hope this starts a happy family ritual for someone, it's been awesome for us and our six kids! Caroline B.
