The Most Damaging Lie About Parenting

Here is the most damaging lie about parenting:

We are responsible for our children.

Most people would define parenting like this: "It is our job as parents to get our children to think, feel, and, especially, behave the right way.  It is our job to get our children to be good." 

Certainly we have a profound amount of influence on how our kids turn out.  This book will illustrate the power we have to shape our children.  In, fact I don't think we can overestimate this influence we have on future generations.

What this really means is that we have a far greater responsibility to our children than we have for our children.
