This Asian parenting book applies the wisdom of the Chinese sage Confucius to the challenges of modern parenting.

Confucius believed that any change we wish to make in our lives must begin from within. Three Virtues of Effective Parenting calls on readers to develop the virtues to help them understand the changes they can make to become a better parent:

  • Benevolence teaches us how to truly love our children, to guide them with discipline and respect, and to be generous with our time and loving care.
  • Wisdom shows us how to take the right action for the right result, to understand our children's problems, and to acknowledge and learn from our mistakes.
  • Courage helps us to preserve when things go wrong, let go of our children when necessary, and dare to make difficult choices.

Readers will discover that the power of virtue is twofold: It will help them to become better people, as well as influence and change the behavior of the people around them. Using the tools of Confucian philosophy, this book aims for real-life results in parent/child relationships. Readers will come to understand the three roles they play as parents-the good ruler, the inspiring teacher, and the caring friend.
