This book addresses the concept of that attitude which actually does reflect leadership. It points out the truth that lies behind our students so-called problems and discredits some typically misguided reasons why students cannot or will not learn. All in all, this book is dedicated to encourage teachers to teach like they mean it and believe in themselves.




The Teenager


Book Description

The narration of the teenager is about young Morris who lived with loving parents and good neighbors. Both the parents and the good neighbors were concerned about proper up bringing of young people. His parents lived by example because children learn by example. They taught him etiquette and good manners and values of a good society. The good neighbors organized a symposium to promote virtue among young people. Consequently, Morris grew up a good son. This book is timely in our society when family virtues have been under serious attack by high rate of divorces and long hours spent in the office or outside the home by parents. These have contributed in depriving our young people of love and care, and has left some of them disillusioned, confused, and hungering for attention. The Teenager attempts to draw our attention to the good son, Morris, who was a product of dedicated loving parents and caring and concerned neighbors. It is also educational, instructional, and fun to read. Young people will see themselves in the characters of this book. Parents, guardians, teachers, foster parents, neighbors, and all that read it will see that young people need their help as they grow. Truly, it takes a village to raise a child.
