A greater percentage of children ages 6-12 say they admire and respect their teachers over their family members, nearly 80 percent worry about “grown-up issues” such as violence and safety and more than 90 percent will take action if they see someone saying or doing something mean.

Those are among the results of a recent survey by Columbus-based Highlights magazine for children. This this is the 10th year Highlights has conducted the “State of the Kid” survey. Read the full post here.

Reader on Confident Parents, Confident Kids…
One reader and President of a Mom’s Club in Gaithersburg, MD writes, “on first reading...phenomenal! Exactly what I needed right now. I just started checking out books again, feeling like I was doing "something" wrong. I just wasn't feeling great about some of my interactions and felt like I needed a jump start. This blog is putting me back in the right mind frame. It is informative, supportive, yummy! It just makes me feel capable..and like I am talking to my best friend about it!”
Maurice Elias, author of Emotionally Intelligent Parenting and Psychology Professor at Rutgers University writes…
Confident Parents, Confident Kids “merits the attention of anyone working in social, emotional and character development who wants a place to send parents for ideas and advice and dialogue.”
