Meet The Vernon Family: Teaching Life Lessons Through Sports

(CBSDFW.COM) - In this special edition of Living Room Sports, CBS 11 Sports photojournalist Bill Ellis introduces us to a special family -- the Vernon family of Cedar Hill.

Charles and Denise Vernon are the parents of six young athletes: Garrett, Gavin, Tatiana, Chandler, Channing and Charity. They range from the ages of 7 to 18.

But this story goes much deeper than the sports they play.

It's about the development of young people -- and their parents.

Watch their story in the video player above.
