Jerry Chris is an expert at developing strategies to teach important lessons, and he has used all his skills to point families in the direction of success for their children.

His 60 ways are strategies to develop 20 important lessons:
Teach your children to love reading; teach your children that school comes first from Monday to Thursday; teach your children to work hard and play hard; get your children’s creative juices flowing; teach your children that first impressions are important; foster multi-talents for increased self-esteem; teach your children to be verbally comfortable; encourage androgynous activities, never enable; teach your children that quality, not quantity counts; start your children in the habit of playing teacher; teach your children to seek more than one solution; teach your children that alone time is not time alone;
teach your children respect for other cultures, religions, lifestyles; teach your children to challenge the next highest level; teach your children that some failure is inevitable and acceptable; teach your children respect for teachers who may not be brilliant; start your children on a path toward excellence in areas besides academics; teach your children how to play the game without giving up creativity; teach your children to learn for learning’s sake, not for cash value.
