Book excerpt: There has never been a time in history when the world's population in general, and Americans in particular, have been so self absorbed and materialistic about life. This type of living produces self-centeredness, headiness, and high-mindedness. It also creates a trap for parents. By being bound by a lust for things, our priorities for a simple way of life gets distorted. Children so often get pushed to the background because parents want to be in the foreground. What we are reproducing is a group of self-absorbers in future generations who are not self-reliant, but rather self-indulgent people. The primary concept of this book is to awaken the parent in parenting. Children need a blueprint for their development. But their parents need to create a valid blueprint first so that they can help their children on the path to responsible adulthood. A plan needs to be put into place from the time a mother conceives. Prevention is better than seeking a cure. Parenting is a delightful journey, but one that embraces many challenges. By observing, you will make new discoveries every day and have opportunities to engage with your child in playtime, communication, education, and other parent-related activities. Growing together with your child is a wonderful adventure. Don't miss it!
