Here are five basic rules for success in school and life!

  1. Help them get along with other children, even those they don't naturally like or agree with.
  2. Teach children behaviors that model respect for adults. Help build a network of supportive adults--in your family, neighborhood or church.
  3. Limit and monitor televisionviewing.
  4. Spend time with your kids in fun family activities -- talking, exploring, expanding their imaginations.
  5. Set schedules that are consistent and healthy for your kids.
