About the Book

Some parents of today cease to fulfill their moral obligations to their children. For this reason, children get their values and character education elsewhere: from the media, friends, books, schools, and many other places. Lisa Calicchia challenges parents, guardians and teachers with her outcry I Want to Teach… Not Raise Your Kids! For Calicchia, parents are supposed to be accountable for their children’s values and character education. However, she points out that in reality, schools are primarily forced to take the task of raising our children, which should not be the case. Through this eye-opening personal account, she calls out to thousands of parents and guardians to renew their parenting methods and mold their child’s character to become the successful citizens we want them to be.
