Jonas Salk, probably best known as the American medical researcher and virologist responsible for creating the first successful polio vaccine, is also credited as having said, "Good parents give their children roots and wings. Roots to know where home is, and wings to fly away and exercise what's been taught them." As parents we work hard to give our children both roots and wings in this sense. We teach our children morals and give them values and we hope that these are instilled deep enough within them that they can grow into well-rounded, productive young adults. But kids have a way of inspiring other kids in ways that parents just can't match. So here are a few of our favorite videos from the web site, www.inspiremykids.com, of inspirational kids you can share with your own children.
