“In all of us there is a hunger, marrow-deep, to know our heritage - to know who we are and where we have come from. Without this enriching knowledge, there is a hollow yearning. No matter what our attainments in life, there is still a vacuum, an emptiness, and the most disquieting loneliness.” Alex Haley, author of Roots: The Saga of an American Family	Children who know a lot about their families: Do better than other children when facing challenges. Are more resilient. Have a stronger sense of control over their lives. Have higher self-esteem. Believe that their family functions successfully. Feel that they belong to something larger than themselves. “The Stories That Bind Us”, Bruce Feiler, New York Times, 3/15/2013
