My Goodness: My Kids demonstrates to parents that when they focus their child rearing on goodness, honor, and integrity they help to create a kinder, safer, world for all of us.

The character and decency of our children underlie most of the problems societies are struggling with today. To feel safe and secure in our homes, neighborhoods, school, and workplaces, we must cultivate honor and decency in each developing generation. My Goodness: My Kids, demonstrates to parents that children who value goodness don’t cheat on a test to get into the college of their choice. They don’t steal candy from the grocery or grow into adults who pilfer office supplies from the workplace. They treat others with respect and kindness, and they don’t hurt innocent people through violence, manipulation, or cruelty. Through humor and no-nonsense advice, Nesta Aharoni presents her readers with day-to-day opportunities to teach our kids to do the right thing and make the right choices—even when the stakes are high and no one is looking.

You might be asking this: Does building character building even count? After all, how does someone else’s behavior affect me? Yes, character building counts, and it does affect you—and me—every day of our lives. Wouldn’t you feel safer going to sleep at night if you were convinced the neighborhood teenagers wouldn’t break into your home or steal your car? Wouldn’t your relationship with your partner be more peaceful, stable, and secure if you wholeheartedly trusted each other? Wouldn’t every child in a classroom benefit if students received the grades they earned? Wouldn’t your workplace be more pleasant and productive if honesty were the standard?

Building character in children and adults is a daily effort. But by looking outside ourselves and toward the consequences of our actions, we can cultivate decency, responsibility, and humanity for the benefit of all. If we want to elevate society, we must raise good kids—kids who embody honor, integrity, and honesty.

Joshua Levitt, ND, says, “My Goodness: My Kids is an intimate portrait of an endangered species … a functional family. Nesta Aharoni serves up chapter after chapter of parental wisdom, each filled with practical techniques that can be put to use before you finish reading the book.”
