Just one of the surprises: The best way to get your children into the college of their choice? Teach them impulse control.

TV is harmful for children under 2Your child's ability to relate to others predicts her future math performance. Smart and happy are inseparable. Pursuing your child's intellectual success at the expense of his happiness achieves neither. Praising effort is better than praising intelligence.
