The products every parent and teacher must have

1. Helping Your Child Become a Responsible Citizen:

This e-book is made available through the courtesy of The Department of Education of the Unites States of America. Just as children must be taught to read and write, solve math problems, and understand science concepts and events in history, so must they be guided in developing the qualities of character that are valued by their families and by the communities in which they live.

This booklet provides information about the values and skills that make up character and good citizenship and what you can do to help your child develop strong character.

It suggests activities that you and your school-aged children can do to put those values to work in your daily lives and tips for working with teachers and schools to ensure that you act together to promote the basic values that you want your child to learn and use.
