Yesterday, I shared Steve’s speech at Harvard. Today I would like to share two other items that I hope you will enjoy.Â
First, Steve has been writing for Psychology Today for almost 3 full years. His blog is called “S’mores and More” and shares insights in parenting, youth development and education. Â
He has written roughly 30 different articles, but let me share my favorites.Â
This one describes how attending a summer camp can help children when they reach college: http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/smores-and-more/201112/creating-advantage-in-collegeÂ
This one talks about how “failure” can actually be a gift: http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/smores-and-more/201112/the-gift-failureÂ
This final one talks about how our kids do not think we are “cool” and that is fine with us: http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/smores-and-more/201201/my-parents-arent-coolÂ
Finally, I would like to share the TEDx talk he did 2 years ago in San Antonio. Â I think he looks pretty good in this (but that might just be a wife speaking):Â

I look forward to giving him back the blogging keyboard tomorrow. He arrived late Wednesday night in time for our weekly counselor meeting.Â
Susie ma’am
