• drugs
• alcohol
• negative input from television, music and the internet
• peer pressure
• and still more

But you can help them overcome the influences of our world and stand firm on a strong foundation of parental love and guidance. It's a tough world out there. Let Zig Ziglar help you and your kids survive and thrive in it!

A child is not a computer that can be programmed to perform according to our desires. Each child is a unique human being with the free will to choose their path in life. With this in mind, Zig Ziglar shows parents how they can help their kids build a foundation of character from which to make the right choices in life. By modeling attitudes and actions that bring about positive results, parents can help their kids understand that life can be positive and that they have incredible worth in God's eyes.

Drawing from his "I CAN" course which has been taught to over three million participants in over 5000 schools, Ziglar provides sensible guidelines to help parents handle a variety of issues including drugs, discipline, encouragement, television, and dating and sex.
