Education

In the real world of jobs and career, people are judged by two standards: their professional skills and their personal traits. While grade school, high school, and college can teach skills and proficiency, it's up to parents to teach children the attributes that make for success in the real world -- diligence, a cooperative attitude, creativity, optimism, assertiveness, and honesty. Schools -- particularly colleges -- don't focus on these issues. That's the job of the parents, so take the assignment seriously. Send your kids into the world ready to handle not only the tasks of life but also its hurdles, social obstacles, and frustrations with finesse and character.
