Summary: #1986 Sure, not every kid is destined to rule a country or run a Fortune 500 company. But every kid can be a leader. Hi, I’m Mark Gregston … with Parenting Today’s Teens. Leaders are those who govern themselves. They’re not mindless followers. They’re secure in what they know is right. And they walk in the truth, regardless of whether others come with them. Now that’s the type of person we want our sons and daughters to become. But how can parents raise leaders in their own home? It all starts with setting the example. Mom, Dad, show your teen how to do the right thing even when it’s hard, to persevere when the chips are down, to stay calm under pressure, and to treat others with respect. Leadership is caught, not taught. So if you want to raise a leader, you have to be one first.
