James and Lillie Jones were happily raising four
beautiful children. They excelled in sports, church and school.
Then, tragically, their youngest son was introduced to drugs by
"friends" at church. They wondered what they
had done wrong as they waded through a hellish nightmare
of police, lawyers, courts, jail, probation, drug programs, counselors,
and psychologists.
Desperate, James began an intensive research program.
He earned a Masters' Degree in Marriage, Family and Child Counseling,
and later, a Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology.
In 1985 he began to critically analyze and test the many
parenting programs and books available on the market.
He has concluded that they are contradictory, seriously incomplete
and in light of new scientific studies, often in error.
During this time he taught hundreds of parenting seminars
to thousands of families who have personally tested
and validated as correct and effective the concepts and
principles he taught.
This program works!
"I promise you a great and wonderful, permanent change in your family if you will faithfully apply the principles found in this program."
-- James J. Jones, Ph.D.
