  The author contends that there are seven essential elements in raising children to healthy, balanced maturity. Children today face different circumstances from those their parents encountered: more competition, more emotional stress, more powerful peer-group pressures. They need good parents more than ever. The book suggests that if seven basic requirements are not met, childen will either withdraw or become aggressive. John Drescher suggests various creative ways in which parents can ensure these needs are met. Each of the short chapters ends with a quiz for parents, as well as discussion questions.
