James A. Whitmore

Schools teach math and science. Nobody teaches your child how to handle a bully, spot a dangerous situation, say no to peer pressure, or bounce back from failure. This book does. Inside, you'll find 150 practical lessons that give your child the real-world skills they need to navigate life with confidence — the kind of wisdom that can't be found in any classroom. Your child will learn how to: Read people and situations before problems arise Make smart decisions under pressure Handle conflict without fear or aggression Think independently — even when everyone else disagrees Bounce back faster from setbacks and failure Stay safe without living in fear Build real confidence from the inside out Whether you read it together at bedtime or use it as a weekly guide, Raise Children Street-Smart turns everyday moments into powerful teaching opportunities. Because the world doesn't wait for them to be ready. You can.
