Congrats Dad! Good job! Your kid turning 18 is a big milestone. Hadn't heard of the term "positive reappraisal" before, but it makes perfect sense. The habit of engaging it would turn the vicissitudes of life into an unending upward spiral of agency and growth. Do you think that positive reappraisal is a human instinct that we all engage, or is it something that needs to be practiced?
