This book is for concerned, modern parents who recognize that the old ways of raising children need some serious updating. After World War II parents were cast adrift in a drastically changed world that affected all our lives forever. Suddenly young people floundered with more sexual freedom, needed more education, had to think in new ways, were faced with a more competitive job market, were struggling with increasing divorce rates among their parents, saw changing moral and value systems, needed more sophisticated social skills, and required many other survival skills. This trend has accelerated into today. This book helps you to teach your children ways to deal with our skewed, modern world by incorporating proven old methods with the new.
