Society is tailor-made for a child's failure.

"It will be no accident if the child goes wrong: the contemporary society is tailor-made for a child's failure... The way to happiness has on its route the loving and the helping of children from babyhood to the brink of adult life." — from The Way to Happiness® book, Precept 4 "LOVE AND HELP CHILDREN".

From a Parent

"I know that the common-sense guidance from The Way to Happiness has provided my children with a way to handle peer pressure and other negative influences they have come in contact with. I have observed the effectiveness of the book's messages and am so happy that I have found such a practical guide that I can use." — TB

From a High School Teacher

"I have used The Way to Happiness booklet in my classes to aid in teaching value clarification techniques over the past two years. In all my years of experience, I have never found a more useful and effective tool for conveying and instilling in young people the foundation and framework from which to begin their life's work. Its appeal to the students I have dealt with (considering their diverse backgrounds and the social and educational problems they bring with them to our program) has been utterly amazing!" — RU

From a Supporter

"There is not a problem facing the world today that this little guidebook of common sense cannot solve. It can be used to run a household or a business. Governments can be lead by it! The tone of a nation could be set by it.

"And if I were to run a school, a college, or any form of instruction or teaching of others, it would be a mandatory course!

"It is without question, the most powerful non-religious book in the world and I would challenge anyone to bring a problem of life to me that I cannot solve with this book!"
