"As parents, we all want to raise happy kids who grow up to be confident adults. The problem is that kids aren't born with instruction manuals, and no one shows us how to raise them like that.

Character training isn't like the spelling test that you forgot to study for in school. You can't cram for it! It's more like playing a minuet on the piano or hitting a homerun. A person's character has to function at a subconscious level and that level of unconscious competency has to be developed piece by piece, layer by layer-and in the case with our kids-conversation by conversation over time.

Food for Thought is designed to equip parents to start those conversations. It is a series of open-ended questions laid out in a calendar format to help parents have conversations with their kids that will help shape them into the adults we all hope they become."
