Ways to Teach Kids About Social Responsibility

Last month, I posted a press release in my other blog about a seminar called Giving Children the Winning Edge where 2009 CNN Hero Efren Penaflorida was one of the speakers.

Inspired by his talk, I wrote an article on teaching kids the value of social responsibility. The writeup can now be viewed at HerWord.com.
