For at least 180 days each year, your children divide the majority of their time between role models and mentors. A child’s primary mentors are parents, guardians, siblings, and extended family. There is no one who will impact your child’s life as much as you. At the same time, your child will spend most of the time they are not with you at school with teachers, faculty, and counselors.
