Every person has to face the practical realities of life – opportunities and responsibilities, defeats or successes. How he will cope with these experiences, whether he will become a victim of circumstances or whether he will manage to dominate them, depends, to a large extent, on how prepared he is to face them – on his education.

There is probably no other book in this field intended mainly for teachers, but from which parents can also learn so much.

The author talks about the collaboration that should exist between teachers and parents, about the way teachers should relate to students, even those who pose problems, about the teacher's conduct and example, but also about the attitude that parents should have towards school and educators.

Current issues discussed in the public sphere are also treated. For example, education based on memorization, to the detriment of one's own judgment, a method that also has moral implications, because children can no longer distinguish between good and evil on their own. Or the problem of competition encouraged by parents and schools, from an increasingly young age, which only feeds selfishness and leads, in the case of many, to dishonesty.

Read with interest and an open mind, this volume will prove to be a real help for all those involved in the educational process, from teachers to parents.
