Broken Men
"It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men." -- Frederick Douglas -- Whether this is true or not is certainly less than obvious. The lack of clarity starts with the meaning of “strong children” and “broken men.” This article explores these questions and how you can assure that your children are "strong."
Pass It Along
As you think about what you ought to do for other people, passing your character along to your children is both a responsibility and an opportunity. Children don’t come into the world with their character pre-packaged. Rather, it develops and evolves through their early years. Character is learned and thus, is taught. This article shows you how you are key to their learning process.
Children Are People Too
“Children are our most important resource.” This is usually simply asserted as a given, with no further justification or explanation. You have likely heard it so many times that it has become little more than a cliché. It sounds right so everyone just takes it for granted that it’s right; but are children actually “our most important resource?” More to the point, are they a resource at all? This article explores this important question.
Stop The Bullies
What is a bully? When does the typical behavior of children (younger and older) stop being normal and expected and transcend to bullying? Those seem like fairly easy questions and they used to have fairly easy answers. We used to know which children were bullies and were reasonably clear about when normal behavior crossed the line into bullying, but no more. This article examines the underlying issues in today’s society.
