These guidelines for raising and understanding youths are valuable tools for parents and caretakers worldwide. The suggested approach allows easy reflection in remembering our teenage trials and tribulations. The relatively easy application of our past experiences will help cultivate some of our future leaders, who may otherwise get lost in a negative social or legal system. If that happened, they would quickly become that "loser" we spend our time attempting to help our youths avoid. Anyone and everyone with children, or preparing to have children, should have this guideline in their possession and on their bookshelf.
