		<description><![CDATA[There&#8217;s nothing much I have to say here beyond my belief that creativity and engaging multiple senses &#38; sensibilities truly is the best way to learn. That&#8217;s something our education system and the way we teach children could really benefit from. You&#8217;ll hear more about that in the last video. &#160;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Amy Chua&#8217;s article in the Wall Street Journal about asian parenting has me thinking about the differences between the way I and many of my Asian friends were raised, and how I see many non-Asian kids were raised.

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve played Robert Kiyosaki&#8217;s boardgame Cashflow 101 a number of times a number of years ago. It must have been about 2 years since I last played, and yesterday I joined some like-minded folks for an evening (a full three-and-a-half-hours, to be exact) of Cashflow.

When I saw the video below, delivered by 12-year-old Adora Svitak, I had to say something about this. We, as adults, very easily and commonly underestimate kids and teenagers.

It&#8217;s only 10 minutes of your time, but it&#8217;s quite eye-opening. Over 30% of kids never finish highschool; over 50% for minority kids. Less than 25% of kids from low [...]]]></description>
