Synopsis

In a world seemingly characterized by ethical subjectivism, relativity, and ambiguity, it is crucial that we equip our children with the necessary tools to navigate life intelligently within a firmly built framework of ethical and moral values. Before setting them free, we must ensure they possess the sharp intellectual skills required to make intelligent ethical decisions. Such a framework is constructed through parental example and decision-making skills training and practice. Children as young as Kindergarten through Sixth Grade are smarter and more absorbent than you may think. They can learn through both teacher and parental example and thinking skills training. This roadmap serves as a guide for teachers and parents alike, helping them navigate the maze called early childhood education and parenthood, ultimately providing their children with the foundation they need to make sound ethical choices in an increasingly complex world.
