Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Kiyosaki expands on his belief that the school system was created to churn out 'Es' / Employees... those A Students who read well, memorise well and test well, and not the creative thinkers, visionaries, and dreamers—entrepreneurs-in-the-making... those C Students who grow up to be the innovators and creators of new ideas, businesses, applications, and products.

The book urges parents not to be obsessed with their kids' grades and focus, instead, on concepts, ideas, and helping their child find their true genius—their special gift. The path they can pursue with love and true passion.
