DESCRIPTION
My PSA is an appeal to parents, educators and even concerned citizens to rally around the idea of fighting the social ills of juvenile delinquency, violence and general lack of morale from within. That is, addressing the child’s internal moral IQ to build the best defense against a litany of ethical challenges they will face.TRANSCRIPT

RIGHT? WRONG?
What is your child’s moral IQ?
Will it be enough to guide her down the right path?
Have you ever wondered?
How do I help my child make better choices?
How do I tune out the harmful, negative messages
bombarding my child at every turn?
How do I make my child become a better person?
While parents, educators, legislators and society at large respond frantically to the rising crises of youth violence, depression, delinquency and peer cruelty with heightened school security, anti-bullying campaigns, organized rallies and reduced class sizes , the crisis remains…
According to renowned child expert and award winning author, Dr. Michele Borba, “ …we have missed one critical piece…enhancing our children’s moral intelligence is our best hope for getting kids on the right course.”
Moral Intelligence is the capacity to understand right from wrong and uses seven core virtues as guiding principles.
The good news is -- it can be learned.
We must act now. Let’s give our children the best chance at becoming strong, happy, morally conscious human beings.
