Research shows teaching kids kindness over achievements will actually set them up for success later in life. Host Lindsay Aerts and Emily Bell McCormick of the Policy Project (https://thepolicyproject.org/) discuss ways to teach your kids to be kind. They discuss the findings in this article from The Atlantic. (https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2019/12/stop-trying-to-raise-successful-kids/600751/). Modeling the behavior and praising kind acts instead of good grades or sports scores are a couple of ways to teach kindness the two discuss.
