Dear
Parents,
We all come from different cultural backgrounds,religions,
and belief systems. However, the stories in this book can
easily be adapted to fit any personal viewpoint. I believe
it is better to equip our children with some form of self-awareness,
wisdom, and knowledge than none at all.
We
live in a society where our children have been unconsciously
trained to disassociate themselves from feelings of compassion,
empathy, or guilt. False
heroes found in most video games, television shows, internet
and movies often set this silent training.
Many of our leaders have forgotten that you cannot have
a functional, balanced and caring society without functional
children, therefore they allow this silent training to be
ever present.
In
a society where instant gratification has replaced true
labour and dedication, children have grown to expect everything
immediately. They want instant soup instead of a finely
brewed broth, even though the latter is more flavoursome
and better for them.
It
is sad that we have found ourselves living in a world where
success is measured by how many “toys” one possesses. Kids
are subtly and passively trained to desire more and more
things, and never feel content.
By
the time a child has reached 6 years of age, his/her neurological
synapses and neuro-pathways have been formed. This neurological
map within a child 's brain creates their mindset, attitude
and how they will see themselves and others in life. While
they gain more experiences, knowledge and wisdom after the
age of 6, their character and personality would have already
been formed and hardwired in their brain.
It is, therefore, vitally
important for adults help shape children's receptive mind
and character into one that has values, morals, compassion,
empathy, courage and respect.
The future of our society
and this planet depends upon this task. We cannot have a
healthy and functional society with dysfunctional children.
They are our future.
You can see this inter-dependability
between children early development and society by how the
different generations (Silent Generation, Baby Boomers,
X,Y,Z etc) were educated and behave. Want to change society?
Change the child educational development between 2 and 6!
This
book was especially created when it was discovered that
neither bookstores nor other channels supplied materials
that specifically addressed character training in a language
that children could understand (eg: Story Telling). The
Legends of Altai series is a step towards this educational
process and is devoted in developing better and more loving
human beings.
We
do have a way to step in and give our children positive
guidance for a more enriching future.
Through
your life, your words and actions and through the gifts
(like this little book) you give your child, you have the
ability to make a positive, profound choice for your child’s
life. You can become their beacon of light by teaching them
to become loving, caring, and wiser beings. This is what
the true gifts of life are about.
