The quality of drive provides the momentum for a person to dream and achieve, creating a unique, independent life. Without it, a person is like a rudderless boat, drifting around a flat lake.

In Drive, nationally renowned educator Dr. Janine Caffrey shows how to inspire your children and develop this vital characteristic. How do I get my child excited about learning? To enrol in a good college? To move out of the house? To create their own life? Designed to assist parents, educators, and counsellors to get kids of all ages off the couch and into the world, Drive outlines nine specific steps proven to beat boredom and foster self-motivation and resourcefulness.

Filled with quizzes, anecdotes, and practical strategies, Drive helps parents turn Generation Me into Generation Move.
