What to expect
Yet this phenomenon is not universal. Some children thrive where others do not. Why? Are there personal behaviors and institutional supports that have proven to make a difference? Agency answers with a loud and clear "yes!"
This book describes four pillars that can uplift every young person: family, religion, education, and entrepreneurship. These pillars embody the meaning of freedom, wherein people are motivated to build healthy social structures and shape the outcomes of their lives.
For that reason, Ian Rowe calls the four pillars the FREE framework. With this framework, children are empowered to develop agency.
In addition to making the case for agency, Rowe shares his personal story coming from an immigrant family. He champions a game plan for creating new agents of agency, promoting the spirit of America's children and showing them the path that will set them FREE.
