"Intelligence is really important, but it's not as important as self-control."

Social science and the key to success - from a really interesting article on experiments with 4-year-olds in the 1960s. Years later the researchers noticed that kids who had been able to wait a few minutes to eat a marshmallow scored an average of 210 points higher on the SATs than kids who had been able to wait only a few seconds.

Train your kids to resist Peeps, and watch their grades improve!
