Wisdom for My Son and Daughter

Life: what is it all about? Why do we often approach it the wrong way? Why are there so many pitfalls we have to be careful of? We all want the best for our offspring as they grow into adulthood. We want them to have WISDOM, to learn from our mistakes, to be aware of the wonderful and not-so-wonderful aspects of the world. How can we enhance our life and theirs using positive psychology, knowledge and awareness? The world is rapidly changing; it has many problems. Wouldn't life be easier if we were given a manual on the human condition, an operating guide to human emotions including some sound, thought-out advice?
