Student Opinion | How Impulsive Are You? – NYTimes.com.
Today’s opinion question excerpts an article about toddlers and marshmallows, which may have a profound meaning for all of us.
Students: Tell us how important you think self-control is. How do you think you would do on the marshmallow test, both as a small child and now? Are you inclined to believe that people who exhibit less self-control as children are more likely to abuse drugs, suffer from obesity or experience stressful relationships as adults? Do you consider yourself to be impulsive or careful? How does that trait carry over into other areas of your life?
