Finishing Raise ‘Em Right
The first draft of my next book, Raise ‘Em Right: Raising Kids with Agency, Resilience, and Purpose, is complete. So is the cover. The manuscript sits at roughly 65,000 words and covers the intersection of developmental psychology, classical education philosophy, and sixteen years of step-parenting — with the same through-line you’ve seen in Unstuck and Misaligned: self-governance begins with accurate thinking, and the habits of mind built in childhood determine the quality of adult decisions.
Current priority: finding the right person to write the foreword. I’m looking for someone whose work sits at the intersection of parenting, education, and character formation — someone who can speak with authority to readers who care about raising children who think clearly before they act.
Expected publication: early 2027.
