Synopsis: Dr. Glen Griffin knows that parents want their children to make good choices so that they will be happy and successful. But in a world where values have been put aside, this has become increasingly difficult. Besides the challenges parents have always had, children and teenagers today are coached daily to defy parents and society. Children are taught to want instant gratification, and the media convey this message through distorted portrayals of life in television shows and videos. Most parents try very hard. Many do an amazing job even though they struggle along, often making the same mistakes their parents made.
