Success in School = Success in Life
TODAY'S TOPIC: Bullying and LGBT Mental Health
Few things impact a child's future as much as how well he or she does in school. And while a child's education will shape his or her future success, it also has a huge role in how he or she feels today. A child's experience in and with school affects so many aspects of well-being, including the child's self-image and relationships with other children and adults.
So parents and caretakers need to make school and their child's education a priority for themselves as well as for the child. This month, CTParenting.com and the Department of Children and Families shine a light on what parents can do to help their children in this crucial area. Because "Success in School Equals Success in Life."
