The Opportunity Years

Do you have children in the Opportunity Years? These are the years from 3 to 10. They are the self-esteem years for children. They are a time when kids are trying to figure out who they are what they can do.

They are also Opportunity Years for parents as they provide adults the chance to form strong relationships with children and also influence their values. Kids are malleable in these years and tend to believe their parents. So parents need to make the most of these years and really set the bar high for children. Don't waste these years as kids move into adolescence and in some ways move away from the strong influence of parents.
