Plus: Free gift idea | Tuesday, November 29, 2022
| | | | | | | Presented By Instagram | | | | Axios Finish Line | | By Mike Allen, Erica Pandey and Jim VandeHei ·Nov 29, 2022 | | Nov 29, 2022 | | Welcome back. Happy Giving Tuesday — America led the world in giving in the last decade. Smart Brevity™ count: 356 words ... 1½ mins. | | | | | | 1 big thing: The season of family time |  | | | Illustration: Sarah Grillo/Axios | | | | When considering what makes life meaningful, Americans across age, party and home state agree: It's family. - Why it matters: Watch cable news or scroll social media, and it might start to seem like we seldom agree on anything. But the power of family unites us.
📊 By the numbers: 83% of American adults — including 82% of Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents and 85% of Republicans and leaners — say they get a great deal or quite a bit of meaning and fulfillment from spending time with family, according to a new Pew Research Center survey. - And in a Pew study from 2021, people from every age group ranked family as the top source of meaning in life — above work and financial wellbeing.
🧠 Reality check: Even though family time is a top priority across the country, Americans are actually spending significantly more time alone. 🌲Worth noting: Another one of life's gifts Americans value is the great outdoors. 71% of adults, including 72% of Republicans and 70% of Democrats, said they get quite a bit or a great deal of fulfillment from spending time outside and experiencing nature. The bottom line: If you have the chance to be with family and friends this season, savor it. And maybe even consider spending some of that time together outside! |     | | | | | | A message from Instagram | | Set up supervision on Instagram to help keep your teen safe online | | |  | | | | Parents have support when it comes to keeping their teens safe on Instagram.
