As we see in The Adventures of Pinocchio, raising a happy, successful child can be a confusing experience for both parent and child. Parents often try to help their children by providing immediate gratification and easy victories, while children then learn to expect rewards based on entitlement, not merit. Using Pinocchio as a model, Puppet Master or Pawn? is filled with practical strategies and helpful tips that will enable parents to teach their children the benefits of experiencing failure, to learn self-discipline and make responsible, conscious decisions - just as Pinocchio learned from Jiminy Cricket! The parents' real purpose is to provide their children with the tools necessary to succeed. Over time, the child will achieve his or her own true happiness and success through hard work and personal sacrifice.
