A very, very sad day: Pope Francis stood head and shoulders above every other leader in the world, secular or religious. He was the only one who was completely clear-eyed about the challenges the world faces; the only one who had genuine empathy for the poor and the suffering, regardless of color or creed.

Nurturing character isn't limited to instilling our values. We should also encourage kids to define their own values.
True success is preparing our kids to decide who they become.
