    "I don't see many children in our neighborhood. This is a very old established neighborhood in the Braeswood area. People say it is "old money!" Important things parents should know is: Be very present & involved in your children's life. Be an authoritative figure, but also be a friend. Your children will share more of what's going on in their life, therefore you aren't shut out as if they can't talk to you. Be a good role model and guide them@"
