How To Equip Our Children for Success.
Scales, Peter C.
Our Children, v22 n1 p32-33 Sep-Oct 1996

They suggest that adults surround children with external assets (support, boundaries and expectations, empowerment, and constructive time use) to help them develop values and skills necessary to guide themselves.
