Families can model,
parents can model for kids.
We can have disagreements.
We can work it out and and hold on
to these good relationships
even through disagreements.
Those are some of the biggest lessons
we can help our children with,
about how to use their feelings
rather than kind of,
be buffeted by their feelings
and ruled by their feelings.
WPR: I'm curious just where you see
the study going from here.
RW: We are collecting more data,
even as we speak.
We are collecting more information
from the children.
Almost all the original
participants have passed away,
but their children are all
Baby Boomers, on average.
And so we're collecting information,
including about what life was like
during the pandemic.
Also collecting information
about how they use social media,
which is something we've all been
talking about a bit here.
And I think in terms of the future,
we see ourselves as wanting
to make our data available
to more and more researchers.
