  Book Title: Your Children Are Under Attack
Book Description
Popular culture used to reflect the values of America. No longer. Now it is a voracious beast of materialism, celebrity and excess that shapes those values to meet its own greedy needs. Every day your children are bombarded with sexually explicit music, violent movies and video games, shock radio, Internet chat rooms …the list goes on and on. You know this onslaught hurts your kids, and you want to do something to protect them. The reality is that your children’s defense against popular culture starts inside your home—with you!

In Your Children Are Under Attack, psychologist and national parenting expert Dr. Jim Taylor exposes how and why today’s popular culture is destroying your children’s values. Popular culture takes the most despicable values—avarice, selfishness, gluttony, intolerance, deceit, and many others—and makes them admirable, all to sell more products to unsuspecting children.

Dr. Taylor also describes how you can fight back and win this war for your kids. Your Children Are Under Attack shows you how, by focusing on six core values that popular culture works hardest to destroy:

* Respect that is earned, not entitled * Responsibility for oneself rather than blaming others * Success that isn’t linked to wealth or fame * Happiness that can’t be bought * Family that strengthens America’s values * Compassion rather than indifference

Your Children Are Under Attack helps you identify and reconnect with your values, and make those values the guiding forces in your children’s lives. Dr. Taylor shows how your own highest values can help your family resist popular culture’s assault and provides you with a reliable road map to lead your children to a solid future as successful, happy, and contributing adults.

This powerful book shows you how to instill these six values (and many others) in your children so they become their own. By making these values a focus in your home, you can ally yourself with your children to create a united front against popular culture’s siege.

Dr. Taylor gives you the tools to do this in ways that are clear, practical and grounded in the real world of 21st-century parenting. And they’re as effective as they are surprising:

* Feel unconditional love for your children, but don’t always express unconditional love * Don’t be your children’s friend * Your children need to fail to succeed * Happiness is experienced, not pursued * And many more

In the battle for your children’s future, Your Children Are Under Attack gives you the power to protect your children and ensure that they grow up to be positive, strong, safe, and caring people in a world that has never been more dangerous.
