About this book

Every mother and father is concerned about how to help her or his children to resist the temptations and pressures at school and amongst neighbourhood kids to get involved with petty crime or drugs. This book is about what parents should do from babyhood to teenage to cope with these hazards.

The late RICHARD CLUTTERBUCK gave over 450 radio and TV broadcasts, and wrote 19 books in his lifetime, the most recent being Drugs, Crime and Corruption (1995) and Public Safety and Civil Liberties (1997).
