If you are from parents who believe that something is still not have said about the education of their children, this article is for you. A good education is not simply long with the herd, hoping to learn everything you need to know. Find out what the 3 key areas of education for their children where the father spends time and effort wise. "What you have in your head so you can never steal!"
still remember these wise words spoken by my father when I was a child. Like any father, he made great efforts to deliver the best possible education. All parents do. At the time of sending their offspring to school, seeking the best alternative available to it and are prepared to make the sacrifice to send their children to an educational establishment for the next 12 years of his life.
All this is fine and recommended. Education is the key to any success in adult life of a human being and is the basis of the progress of a society.
However, it is important that every parent recognizes there are areas in the education of their children will not be promoted in the traditional education system.
Among them, the three most important are:
1. Entrepreneurial education
2. Financial education
3. Leadership education
Most parents do not question the fact that schools focus on preparing their students so that they can successfully enter the labor market. In other words, prepare them so they can find a good job in his adult life.
You say: "What's wrong?"
Absolutely nothing. Unless you want your child is a person with an entrepreneurial spirit and knows how to transform a good idea into something beneficial for themselves and their community. To understand the difference between entrepreneurial education and training that prepares our children for a job, look to arrest the methodology used in the traditional education system:
taught school in a particular subject chosen by the Ministry Education of each country and evaluates the acquisition of this knowledge through a grading system. Students are seen as containers to be filled with that information.
Students better able to assimilate the content will draw better grades and have a better chance to aspire to a good job when they reach the end of the conveyor belt 12 years of school.
How can parents encourage their children's entrepreneurial skills?
To supplement the education of their children with an education that promotes entrepreneurial skills, parents should inspire their children to explore and develop their own projects, although not included in the school curriculum.
Let them pursue their individual interests, but did not see much future for now. Remember that learning process is much more important than the final product. The child must work individually on their own initiative, enthusiasm and dedication.
If your children finish school without knowing carry a checkbook, organize a budget, know the power of compound interest and do not know how to invest what they earn, they have a big gap in their education.
Unfortunately the vast majority of facilities do not prepare their students in the area of \u200b\u200bfinancial education. The result is visible: the level of youth debt is alarming.

What can parents do to provide a sound financial education?
It is important that the whole family to acquire financial education. Children copy what their parents do. If parents are tempted to any new acquisitions to visit a shop, the children will too.

Allow a period of time in which their children can develop what is in his heart. Encourage them to experiment. Help them gain a vision for what could be achieved with a certain talent or skill. is important that parents convey understanding and support when a child is undertaking a project on their own, rather than suppress it because it has not done his homework.

The world needs good leaders. Bad things happen because good people failed to lead and remained silent at crucial moments. Even if you do not perform great deeds, need to know how to have a positive impact on people around them, because all the adults have a circle of influence of varying magnitude. Our children will become leaders in founding a family. If we want to be responsible husbands and fathers, who also have some influence on their peers and are people who know better serve their generation, we must teach them to be good leaders.
Define what a good leader:
A good leader must have strength of character, be aware of its responsibility for the lives of others and be willing to assume. You must also possess the ability to make decisions, be committed to their cause and the courage to maintain its position in adversity.
