Synopsis

Some really practical ideas for parents who want to raise "good enough" Jewish kids to insure that the Jewish people will last at least another generationAn insightful book on Jewish parenting by a middle-aged divorced man without children, 40 Things is based on the many failures and few successes of the author's friends' attempts to be perfect Jewish parents. It is a practical book about improving the odds which asks: "How much can we get away with and still raise fully Jewish children who will in turn raise other Jewish children?"
