Make Your Child Truly Intelligent

Introduction

We live in an era in which most of the influences that shape the character and lifestyle of your child come from outside the home. You can reduce some of the effects of these very powerful influences, but you cannot shut them off. How then do you raise your child to eventually become a truly effective, responsible and confident adult participant within this highly dynamic or, to put it more correctly, unstable or even predatory social, economic and political environment? The answer lies in first guiding and allowing your child to enjoy fully the brief period that we call childhood. Simultaneously, you groom him increasingly to be self-reliant.

As a parent, this is how you can gradually release yourself from being an indefinite baby-sitter. How else can you increasingly gain freedom to enjoy your own unique interests and pursuits and simultaneously live fully? Unfortunately, some parents never free themselves from baby-sitting right up into when their own children have themselves become parents. This is stressful, most unfortunate but certainly avoidable.

This book sets out for any parent practical tools required for this job that combines two forms of joy: first, from being a parent and second, from being an independent individual. Nothing is taken for granted. Test the techniques and see for yourself the effective results that they eventually produce.
