TODAY IS GLOBAL HUG YOUR KIDS DAY!

http://www.hugyourkidstoday.com/

Global Hug Your Kids Day is one day a year to remind parents to stop and hug their kids - and spouse/partners, and other loved one - every day. It's like Mother's Day and Earth Day, which are also in McGraw-Hill's official holiday calendar.

This isn't about time management. This is not about "balance." It is not about parenting. Our work is about helping people, who want to be great at work AND great at parenting and other aspects of their lives, find a sane path that works for them. We advocate for kids AND their parents - AND employers and schools and communities. Our work really touches everyone.


Global Hug Your Kids Day springboarded from some billboards Michelle Nichols and her family had put up in Houston in 2003, in memory of their son, Mark. The billboards read "Hug Your Kids Today. We Wish We Could. In Memory of Mark Nichols 1989-1998." Mark died suddenly in 1998, at age 8 1/2 years old, from brain cancer.
