Volunteering your time, energy and skills is a good way to build character in children, says Karen Lee, 39, a mother of three.
“Helping and giving to those in need are good qualities to develop in your children,” says the full-time housewife. “It teaches us to be less self-centred and also to be more considerate of others. And these are important qualities for children to learn from young,” she says.
