On social media, in the news, and from the highest levels of government, kids are increasingly getting the message that being selfish, obnoxious, and cruel is okay. This book provides a fresh, often surprising perspective on parenting issues, from toddlerhood through the teenage years. First, award-winning science journalist, Melinda Wenner Moyer outlines the traits we want our children to possess - including honesty, generosity, and antiracism - and then she provides scientifically-based strategies that will help parents instill those characteristics in their kids.
