Family Virtues: Give Your Child the Spiritual Edge is a parents' guide on how to develop virtues within a family as a foundation for a spiritual life. Gopaul, using examples in his own family, inspirational stories, arguments from experts, and knowledge from Holy Writings has presented with conviction a simple truth: spiritual success is the most rewarding pursuit of any human life. Foremost, he argues that parents deserve more respect, recognition, and honor for their selfless duty of raising a human being--the most difficult and important of all tasks. When a child knows the nobility of self, not just self-importance, this child will naturally extend this self-worth to others. Combining nobility with moral values gives a child a better chance to develop a sound character and become a happy, productive citizen.
