I found a very informative site and wanted to pass it on to you.

The Search Institute has done a more than 15 year study on over 1 million children to see what assets they needed to succeed in life. They listed 40 developmental assets and found that the more assets a child had, the more success that child would have in life. (Children belonging to a religious community or having a faith relationship were linked to 29 of the 40 assets!!!)

If you would like to find out WHAT the assets are and HOW to help your child obtain them, go to www.search-institute.org/assets/.
