This article presents a series of excerpts from the author's upcoming book entitled Parenting for Moral Growth. It is an attempt to provide parents with a practical overview of over a decade of research into how individuals develop their understanding of morality. As well as offering a popular translation of Kohlberg's cognitive-developmental theory of moral development, the author provides a series of concrete examples of how these theoretical principles can be employed in everyday family interaction. The case is made that regardless of their intentions, parents are moral educators and must become active in this role by implementing moral development strategies in the home environment.
