Search Institute sees families as asset Builders. Search Institute’s framework of developmental assets offers families a concrete, sensible perspective for thinking about parenting and family life. Rather than offering a laundry list of “stuff you should do,” the asset-building approach offers perspectives and priorities to help shape family life and parenting priorities.
An asset-building approach to parenting has many benefits. Instead of focusing on problems, the asset-building approach offers a positive approach to parenting.
There are many things families can do to build assets in their children and adolescents. Some of those things “just come naturally,” while others need to be intentional.
