Psychologist Dr. Henry J. Svec presents a parenting guide organized around six practical steps, drawing on interviews with six Canadian leaders and his account of the parenting they experienced. Covering the long arc from conception through late adulthood, the book frames unconditional love and discipline as paired foundations for raising responsible, self-confident adults. Its concerns include boundaries in early childhood, dependence in adult children, and the role families can play in preparing young people for community life and careers. The emphasis is on translating the author’s observations and professional experience into direct, usable parenting strategies.
