3. Traditional family (both parents) 3. Today’s family (single or child headed) 4. Parents/family took care of them 4. Early on learning to fend for themselves 5. Have ‘talk shows’ stories 5. They have counter-stories (News bulletin) 6. Protected by the family/parents 6. Grow up on the very dark side of life 7. They are easy to teach 7. They are not the easiest to teach 8. They have long-term dreams 8. They have potential, if you believe it 9. They are predictable, stable 9. They are unpredictable, volatile 10. Their future is positively preordained
