Synopsis

Have you ever wondered why you do what you do? Dear America can help you understand the often hidden connections between your current behavior and past events. Being able to identify who is driving your bus is the key to unlocking the power within yourself to change your behavior and live a fuller life. Dear America presents ideas that can be: - Easily understood - Universally applied - Readily implemented - Within your control Presented in Dear America is a straightforward philosophy of behavior that offers a useful paradigm to help us all live our lives as more rational and responsible adults. The book is a reminder that we are each individually the sum of our parts and that we are collectively a society that interacts with each of those parts. To understand a group one must study the individuals who form that group. Society is composed of individuals whose psychological development determines the nature and quality of life in that society. To understand psychological development within a society one must look at individual patterns of behavior established in childhood that are reenacted in adulthood. The family remains the organizing principle through which early childhood learning takes place, and imitation remains the fundamental system for transferring information and forming behavior patterns in childhood. The philosophy of behavior as presented in Dear America is neither male nor female; it is simply human. The question "Who's driving the bus?" seeks to identify which part of us is making our decisions at any given moment. The answer to that question determines the quality of life in our society. The paradigm shows us how we can change the bus driver to a more rational and developed part of ourselves, thereby improving life in our society.

The Collapsing American Family: From Bonding to Bondage completes Linda's trilogy of insightful books that connect the philosophical, political, and psychological dots of the globalist war on both American and individual sovereignty. Her new release, Space Is No Longer the Final Frontier--Reality Is, examines globalism's psychological and informational warfare on America in America. The final battle between objective reality and subjective reality, will determine humanity's future of freedom or feudalism.Linda believes the future of our nation requires reviving individualism, restoring meritocracy, and teaching critical-thinking skills to children again. Her illustrated children's book series, Mimi's Strategy, offers youngsters new and exciting ways of solving their problems and having their needs met. Mrs. Goudsmit believes that learning to think strategically rather than reacting emotionally is a valuable skill that will empower any child throughout his or her life. Plus, in Linda's words, "I have yet to meet the child who would prefer a reprimand to a kiss."
