Parenting is serious business, increasingly so in our complex world. Children face an onslaught from the media, marketers, drug peddlers and other predators at an increasingly young age. This book aims to guide parents through their children's preteen years. It is a timely and useful tool.

No book can ever provide a failsafe recipe for raising your child. All it can do is point you in the right direction as you build a unique relationship with your child and provide some useful information on the challenges you and your child face, from learning difficulties to social acceptance in a diverse society.

Abraham Kriel Childcare believes this book to be a worthwhile investment in the future of South Africa's children. It was published to commemorate the centenary of Maria Kloppers campus – a division of AKC – and bears testimony to the unique spirit of its founder. Maria Kloppers believed in loving children and devoted her life to it. At the time of her death, she was 'Mama' to 2,000 people.
