Time for the people we love
Time can never be reclaimed. Money can be earned. Homes can be built. Things can
be purchased.
Time with the people we love happens or not. Once gone, all we have are memories
of moments. At PAXIS, we came to realize that productivity at home was equally as
important as productivity in the workplace. We came to see that we could figure out ways
for people to get things done that they have to get done, then the more time there is left
for joy.
PAXIS offers proven "recipes" for more joy at home.
We search, for "recipes" for easier home life. This task never ceases,
because the world doesn't stay still. Some of these recipes are put into our school systems, which are called "HomeLinks."
Other recipes are packaged for direct use by families, which are called the PAX Living
Systems. Other recipes are part of community mobilization systems. All of these recipes
work together to help you and the people you love find more time for joy at home.
More peace in homes
Parents today are challenged to raise their children without significant help from
extended family systems, nor from the community, by and large. There are few positive
models for behavior for children. Media portrays a world that is scary and difficult. Many
children witness violence in their neighborhoods and in their schools. At the same time,
the workforce is spending more and more time working, in order to afford the same standard
of living.
Parents are looking for answers to simple problems as well as complex ones.
"How much TV is too much TV?" "How can I make my child do homework without
a fight?" "How do I keep my child safe while I am at work?" PAXIS School
Systems, PAXIS Community Systems, PAX Living Systems and other materials provide answers
from scientific research that parents can trust.
