Research that Benefits Children and Families—Uplifting Stories

Option 2:
Imagine that you possess the means and the knowledge to conduct research studies about any topic in the early childhood field. Imagine further that you are not restricted by the reality of the present. Imagine that your study will make a major positive contribution to the well-being of children and/or their families. What topic would you choose? What can you imagine the positive contribution(s) would be?

If I could conduct research on any topic in the early childhood field  I want to look how a child's ability to interact socially plays on their future job. The study will show parents the importance of disciplining their children and teaching them respect for others. I think this study will make people want to raise more socially conscious children. The reason this is so interesting to me is because I recently found out that a janitor at our school was one of those children who disrespected teachers and would not follow directions in school. I wonder if it was because of her behavior as a child.
