Abstract
This chapter talks about what it means to be a 'great kid', discusses why this is important and explores what children need from home, school and the community to be the best they can be and feel comfortable with who they are. This is what matters, this is what makes a difference to authentic wellbeing, this is what works. But first, we need to unpick some beliefs that are unhelpful in growing great kids.
