Document Summary
All the parents that i know would do anything for their children. They"re their children"s protectors and advocates, and would donate a kidney if they had to. Family and the success of their children is paramount to most parents. Of course, there isn"t any magical formula that guarantees your child will kill it in life. But thanks to the folks at business insider, here are some things that parents of successful children have in common. Parents, take note: parents who teach their children social skills. Kindergartners who share, cooperate, and are helpful are more likely to have a college degree and a job 20 years later than children who lack those social skills. Also, kids who get along well with others are less likely to have substance abuse problems and run-ins with the law. These are skills that probably portend their ability to do well in school, to pay attention, and to navigate their environment, said damon.
