-- Joshua Freedman, Editor, "EQ Today"

 “The bottom line is, we can’t neglect or take for granted the emotional life of our children & young adolescents. Emotions drive their behavior, shape their values, and influence their decision-making abilities. Self-awareness, motivation, handling emotions, social skills, and empathy are equally important interdependent components of human intelligence.”

- Dr. Daniel Goleman
( Writer of the bestseller 'Emotional Intelligence' 1995)
