Check out today's Letter to the Editor in the Northwest Herald by recently-retired educator Ray Mathis of McHenry. www.nwherald.com/articles/2009/01/16/09482482/
Ray's advice? "Teach students 1) to have an internal locus of control, 2) to recognize and correct irrational thinking, and 3) to have effective emotional management."
He hits the nail right on the head. We need to be teaching our kids how to cope, not merely how to behave. Ray's credentials are impressive; check out his bio.
