Sommario/riassunto

This book tackles how to educate our children on the cornerstones of a humanistic foundation as a person; harboring those traits of responsibility, caring, honesty, and service to others. It helps parents, educators, and most of all, children to recognize that one must embrace these abilities in order to gain the tools to be fulfilled.
