Dear Loving and Concerned Parent,
One of your GREATEST FEARS is that your child grows up to be an irresponsible adult who doesn’t do a good job of taking care of themselves or looking out for others.

Do you try your best to teach your child values? Do you want your child to grow up as a responsible adult? Do you want your child to be able to learn from their mistakes? Do you want open and honest communication with your child? Do you fear your child won’t adopt your value system? Not be a responsible adult? Not learn from their mistakes?

These fears are common among parents. I know because I have been working with children and parents for over 20 years as a Child Psychologist.

As a parent your job is to instill in your child the best value system you can. This means your child learns to take and accept responsibility for themselves. They take care of themselves but are mindful and respectful to others. Children learn from mistakes.

At young ages children internalize the values of their parents. As children grow they look beyond parents to teachers, religious figures, TV, books, peers, etc to add to their world view. All these influences shape their ultimate value system.

Younger children are in fantasy a lot of the time. As children develop, they learn to distinguish between fantasy and reality. As adults the line is clear (for most people) on the difference between fantasy and reality. Children often fantasize about how-in their eyes-their life could be better.

You may be surprised to hear (just kidding) that many children don’t particularly like school or homework or chores. They fantasize about not doing these. Didn’t you? Don’t you fantasize about not having to work or take care of the house everyday?

Books and fantasy are great teachers for children.

My new book - The Kidbot Kaper: Mike And Jessie Meet Their Match is designed to be appealing to children with a Fantasy/Sci-Fi type story while teaching them important life lessons.

Reading this book will: Show the importance of taking responsibility for yourself.   Teach that it is OK to make mistakes.   Show the value of learning from mistakes   Open up communication on these lessons between parent and child   Teach the importance of respecting others.

Don’t leave important lessons like these to your teachings plus chance. Give your child all the opportunity to learn these lessons before it is too late.

Can’t wait to buy the book?
Just fill in your name and email address below to get a sneak peak at chapter one! There is no risk at all.
