The first years of life determine a child’s attitudes toward learning, and his early habits determine his ability to become a competent life-long learner.

Loving their children is intuitive for most parents, and nearly every parent we mentor shares a desire to give their children “more” than they had. The question remains, “What is more?”

We believe “more” means a relationship with God, higher values, and quality learning.  While many parents might agree with this premise, their actions show that their main focus is controlling behavior and providing material things. They focus primarily on telling children what to do. However, parenting by “telling a child what to do” is ineffective and fails to teach children how to learn. With training and lifestyle changes, parents can engage in cooperative and appreciative activities that inspire learning and improve behavior.   This process involves role-modeling and guiding children from birth to think, ask questions, and solve problems.

How might the world improve if children learn to ask their own questions, reflect, validate answers, make wise choices based on those thoughts, and see challenges as opportunities to grow?

This can be accomplished through keeping curiosity vibrant, asking questions, and learning to solve problems together. This process develops life-long learners because we teach children how to learn and eventually teach themselves. They will become Thought Leaders!
