Parents, caregivers and educators spend most of their “teaching time” focused on academics and standardized testing…but who is teaching our children the most important lessons of all, “Life Skills”? On this show, I chat with Social Entrepreneur, Life Skills Educator and Parenting Strategist Marlaine Cover about how her “Life Skills Report Card” can help shift our priorities in education from “raising grades” to “Raising Humanity”. As the founder of Linkedin top parenting group Parenting2.0, Marlaine shares her unique experience and knowledge in order to help adults see the importance of holding Emotional Intelligence to as high a standard as Academic Intelligence. Listen in then share your thoughts on the subject!
