meeting physical needs (food, shelter, clothing, safety, medical)
2) Meeting emotional needs (stability, maturity, emotional control, sense of purpose and worth, self-respect, and respect for others)
3) Nurturing needs (education (including college), personal growth needs, love)In these, a lot of time is involved taking kids to activities such as band practice, football practice, library, scouts, church activities, et al.
