Introduction
A brief outlay of chapters and content
What is a Super Kid?
Kids are born super and internal and external environments either
maintains their super status or lowers it
How to choose a partner
Choosing a partner is a factor in maintaining the super status of
kids, if there are differences in background, environment and other
factors, the differences usually surface when there are kids, specially
when it comes to religion as an example, many attributes are mentioned
just to shed some light on that issue.
Visualization
Visualization is used in many sports training and the training of
Olympics athletes, the younger a person knows and uses visualization the
better off they are as life goes on, they will have a high success rate
and high accomplishments rate.
TEENS Concept ©
T stands for the Tongue for the sense of TASTE, E stands for the Eyes for
the sense of VISION, E stands for the Ears for the sense of HEARING, the N
stands for the Nose for the sense of SMELL. the S stands for the Skin for
the sense of TOUCH, using the senses as outlined in the TEENS Concept
helps control and train emotions to be stress free, for kids as well as
adults of course.
Listenology
Listenology is the art of listening with the objective of helping,
learning how to listen and teaching your kid also how to listen will make
life easier for you and your super kid.
Sleep Learning
Many people have used sleep learning successfully, kids usually sleep
more than 10 hours per day, imagine increasing their learning time by
about 100% by using sleep learning, very simple method to benefit from
sleep learning is outlined in the book.
Thought pollution
Whatever provides wrong information is a pollutant, initially it is
external thought pollution, then becomes internal thought pollution, as a
parent you have to be aware of thought pollution and how to deal with it
for the benefit of your kid, when the kid learns how to deal with thought
pollution they become aware and not affected by it.
Food
There are two types of food, dead food and live food, junk food is dead
food that has minimal values to no values nutritionally despite the good
taste, just minimize the dead food consumption and your kid will be in
better health.
Love and Touch
Love is a key ingredient in having a super kid, it helps self
confidence, belonging and many other favorable traits, it also allows
better learning. Touch is quite important in regards to who is allowed to
touch in form of hugs and kisses, and why you should not use those
stickers for tattoo.
Problems and difficulties
The idea of having a problem and facing difficulties is a perception
issue, because the same thing could be a problem to some kid and for
another kid it is not a problem, and the same for difficulties, some kids
see things difficult, while others see the same exact thing or situation
as easy, with this understanding problems and difficulties become easy to
handle and deal with.
Solutions
Every unsolved issue has a solution, it is just a matter of knowing
it, or reaching it, the kid solves many issues since their birth they
solve their hunger issue by crying, you as a parent have to point out to
your kid that they are capable of finding solutions, so they never become
complainers.
Homework
What is homework and how to deal with it, and the most common
observation is that many parents assume their kids are stupid and need
their help, as a parent you have to be quite careful with this type of
behavior.
Discipline
Discipline is just making your kid aware of rules and regulations
adopted in your household, it is not as harsh as the word might imply,
everything in life has its rules for better chances of survival and
maintaining a good standard. The earlier a kid knows that the better off
they will be and the more time you will be saving.
Self confidence
This is one aspect that many other issues hinge on, your kid is and
should be self confidant with your confirmations and praise and guidance,
easily developed for the better of your child.
Talents
It is with absolute certainty that every person has a talent, it is a
matter of believing the statement and then when will it be evident and
when will the kid or you as a parent know they have it, but be sure they
do possess a talent of some sort, and needs guidance and development.
Handwriting
Handwriting is one of the ways through which you can identify problems
before they become larger and also through handwriting you can solve many
problems, I recommend some books on the subject so you are able to detect
issues earlier.
Smartness
Unfortunately smartness criteria is used the wrong way leading to
formation of mental blocks caused by parents actions and teachers actions,
you and your kid are as smart, it just shows up in different areas of
life.
Success
Every kid goes through many achievements and successes, each child has
their own way of being successful and they use their method time and time
again to achieve success, this child must be made aware of their successes
and how they do it so they can adopt the same methods as they grow older
and older and always be successful.
Shyness and fears
It is normal to be shy and afraid, it is part of a normal human being,
we all have certain situations where we would be shy and others we fear,
then it becomes a matter of its degree and how to deal with it, when
explained properly to your kid then they will not have excessive shyness
or fears.
The concept of the 24 hour day and time management
Every day is about 24 hours, activities during the day take certain
amount of time to be completed, examples of which are sleep, playing time,
eating time, and many more types, homework time, chores time. Once your
kid is aware that there is only 24 hours in a day they have to be creative
to get more play time for example by doing chores or homework in less
time, it is a simple concept that you teach your kid of time management.
Activities and sports
All kids engage in activities, they just have to be useful and safe,
and supervised and guided to achieve more benefit to the kid. Sports is a
type of activity that helps the child develop many skills, muscular as
well as mental skills are taught and enhanced by sports and activities,
you have to make sure that your kid is also aware of their mental skills
increasing with that special or specific activity.
Manners and Etiquette
Manners and etiquette are guidelines that people go by, some manners
are acceptable in certain households and the same manners could be
unacceptable in another household, you set the guidelines for your
standards of manners and etiquette and show the benefit of following and
adopting such manners to your kid.
Communicate and be effective
As a parent you do communicate with your kid, but to be effective in
the sense of not repeating the same things more than one you have to
communicate in a certain way, and this is covered in an easy to follow
method.
Thumb sucking, lip stretching, and nail biting
Normally kids don't do that, however because of external factors they
think it is fun or it fulfills a need, as a parent you should be aware at
its onset and know how to handle.
Responsibility
As a parent you demonstrate responsibility to your kid so they learn the
concept and become responsible, and when they know they are responsible
they will think before taking actions, for example they are responsible
for not getting hurt so they will think before the jump, they will think
before doing any action for that matter.
ADD and other letters
Attention deficit disorder is something we all have, imagine you are
in a lecture or in a surrounding that doesn't interest you, definitely you
will develop ADD and your mind will wonder in other areas and shut off the
intake of information being presented, I talk about this so you are aware
what ADD means, and solutions could be done without chemicals.
Senses
We all possess more than 5 senses, but there are 5 senses that are
common or known among all humans, to be a good parent and teach your kid
in a better and more effective manner you need to know which sense is
stronger for your kid, and which is the weakest sense and how to develop
it.
Pets and animals
Pets have their role, either at home or somewhere else, from animals
many things can be learned, and the dividing line is replacing a human
with a pet, you must be aware of such fine lines and also teach
responsibility for others.
Concentration
It is a way of increasing the attention span and increasing or having
a more effective mind process, it is desirable and beneficial to teach
your kid how to concentrate starting with small steps, it will prove
beneficial later in school and in life as they grow older in general.
Creativity and discoveries
When there is a need, a real pressing need the mind becomes creative
in coming up with methods to attain the need, discoveries are through
observations, demonstrate to your kid both and you will have quite a
resourceful kid and also in the right aspects of things.
Test taking
Getting your kid used to tests and preparing with them of how to take
tests will help them immensely in school, and then tests will not be an
issue any more.
Electrical gadgets and batteries
It is always better to stay away from those gadgets and battery
operated toys, there are many ways you can make toys and puzzles, the toys
and puzzles you make communicate your love and guidance a lot better than
the ready made toys, many suggestions are provided to demonstrate how
simple the matter is.
Power of the mind
The mind is powerful, realize it or not it is, first the kid must know
they have a mind and second they should know it is powerful and can
accomplish many goals with their mind, the earlier in a kids life you
start demonstrating that the better off you kid will be.
Creating Problems
To develop mind and motor skills you present problems you know your
child is capable of, this way your kids gets used to solving problems, and
they grow up looking at what others call problems as opportunities for
exercising their abilities which increases their self confidence as well
as their worth as a human being, and being more worthy they will be paid
more for their skills as they become adults, many benefits are derived
from this simple concept.
Developing language skills
Those who know more than one language simply have one thing more than
others that don't, if you have a chance to teach your kid another language
you should do that from birth, and you will be amazed how easily the other
language is mastered.
Associations
How issues and matters are associated in your kids mind is very
important to know, it will solve the mystery of how did they do that,
whenever something occurs out of the blue it usually have an association
in the child's mind, as a parent being aware of that will help you solve
many mysteries.
Entertainment
The show of love is a never ending show with many great benefits to
your kid, you are the CEO of Parenthood Production Company - PPC - which
produces many shows from a to z, show of love, show of parenthood, show of
reliability and many more shows you can produce and direct as the CEO.
Health
Health should never be compromised, knowing what is healthy and what
is not will help your kid to grow to become a super adult and in good
health, simple things that are easily implemented will lead to good
health.
Instant gratification
There is instant and there is delayed gratification, there is I want
it now syndrome and there is I can wait, know what you are teaching your
child and show the benefits of delayed gratification that do far outweigh
the instant gratification way and you would have raised a super kid that
is not lead by their instincts and that is able to think properly for
their well being and benefit.
Trades and Professions
Exposing your child to many trades and professions will help the child
choose what is appropriate for them, start by exposing your kid to what
both parents do, then what the grandparents do, and then friends, and
allow the kids to ask questions. The reason this is important is because
when people do what they love they do it better and are better rewarded
financially.
Road maps
Realize it or not many things have road maps, seeing it or not there
is a road map, demonstrate the concept of road maps and planning so your
kids grows up knowing what to do and how to plan to achieve their goals.
Why
Asking why is a good thing, it is how kids find out about things,
however it is now abused and you have to set the rules, some issues they
can ask why and you will answer, other issues they can still ask but you
are not obligated to give an answer and they have to follow, and I show
you where the danger is if you don't differentiate between both ways, the
ultimate goal is to have a super kid.
Where did it come from?
Things come from TV, from cartoons, from others, from school, whenever
you realize your kid has picked up a new word, or a new behavior you have
to ask yourself from where until you find it to explain and prevent more
of the unwanted words and unwanted behavior, also it is important to
realize that different homes have different rules as to what is acceptable
and what is not acceptable, so there is no good or bad, you just want it a
certain way for your family.
Stress and desserts
Stress is usually 100% self induced, it is the perception of an
occurrence or a happening, you have a choice to either feel bad and be
stressed or just deal with it and solve the issue be happy, if stress is
allowed to set in, it is you who allowed it, and by the same token you can
disallow it, quite simple methods to prevent stress from you and your kid.

The child is aware from day 1 and even could be aware earlier, however
the feedback mechanism to our understanding is not there, but they are
aware, so make use of kid's awareness and show love and instill values,

be followed as they are presented, but you should present them in a way
that is better for you and your kid, just knowing what the suggestions are

you thought of yourself and you will realize that you are more capable
than what you thought of yourself.
