The 7 Essential Virtues of Moral Intelligence

Over the next number of days I will be posting a new virtue everyday.  These are reprinted with permission by Dr. Michele Borba - http://www.micheleborba.com/  and are from her book Building Moral Intelligence 

Moral Intelligence consists of seven essential virtues:  empathy, conscience, self-control, respect, kindness, tolerance, and fairness - that help kids navigate through the ethical challenges and pressures they will inevitably face throughout life.  These core virtues are what give students the moral bearings by which to stay on the path of goodness and to help them behave morally.  Here are the seven virtues that will nurture a lifelong sense of decency in your youth.

We will be adding 1 virtue a day.......keep tuned!
