		<description><![CDATA[Praise is so powerful. It makes us proud. It focuses our attention on the feature that was cause for the praise. It helps define us. Parents who praise are not stigmatized (unlike parents who punish). No wonder, then, that parents use this powerful tool liberally. But as Po Bronson points out in his recent book, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Trust is the most important good. Do not break promises, agreements or rules. All rules and decisions are man-made and up for discussion. If discussion fails to resolve a disagreement, the parents win. Create family rituals. Family needs time, memories and cohesion; rituals deliver all three. Never go to bed angry. Conflicts are normal, but [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Outliers is a book about people who are off the charts successful &#8211; what is the root cause for their success? Frequently, it is attributed to talent, genius, or other inherent traits. There is evidence that the attribution of success to intrinsics is harmful. Gladwell goes one step further and makes the point that it [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today, children get on average 1 hour of sleep less each night than they did 30 years ago. Kindergartners get 30 minutes less. What are the consequences? They are actually astonishing. The book Nurture Shock describes a number of interesting experiments around the impact of sleep deprivation on a child&#8217;s brain development: For 6th graders, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In his book &#8220;Outliers&#8221; Malcolm Gladwell makes the point that individuals who are outstanding in any given area have put in at least 10,000 hours of practice. Let us just assume for a second this is true (and the assertion that training is more important than innate ability is a good thing): What are the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Popular science books are frequently more popular than scientific. Not Nurture shock &#8211; it boasts a 87 page appendix with acknowledgments, scientific notes and references to published articles. A few spot checks of the references against the well written and compelling content in the main body of the book were satisfactory, so I feel comfortable [...]]]></description>

As he pushed the doors open, he saw two bales of hay at the other end of the barn, one in the left corner, and one to the right. The donkey was weakened by his hunger and did not want to take an unnecessary step. [...]]]></description>
