A quick read but it did not turn out to be what I expected from the title. It has few real good points for parents, but it is focused more on educational system and teachers role in a child’s life and some inevitable advertisement of Art of living courses available to overcome various issues. So, i rate 3.
This is a collection of the talks by Sri Sri Ravishankar on children during various occasions. Little bit useful. Advises everyone to send their children for the programs conducted by Art of Living.
