Time spent with your children is precious. Just being at home regularly and talking about
whatever, is suffi cient for the emotional development and comfort of every member of
the family. Just talk.
Th is family saga is about an ordinary familys cohesiveness, strength, ambition and
determination that made it possible for within one generation to climb the slippery,
ramshackle ladder from deprivation to the security of American middle-class. The
story accentuates what has been said by many others, that poverty is more a matter of
perception and relativity; that with understanding ones situation thoroughly, one might
fi nd a way from victim to mastery through right thinking, right actions and reciprocity.
Th e author is not seeking to assert that everyone can bootstrap a way out of poverty. Th ere
are places and situations so bereft of opportunities, where poverty is so abject, it will be
a travesty to even suggest that behaviors on their part could lift them out.
With Several years of experience as a Commissioned police offi cer and a second career
as a Child Protective Investigations Program Administrator, the author, having visited
the homes of thousands of families, interviewing many, many more individuals, has
come to believe what for some is already known at an intellectual level, that there are no
perfect families.
Th rough education and specifi c training, Mr. King has been able to identify the kind of
value system, foreign and local that contribute to inter-generational abuse and neglect of
children. He hypothesizes, based on impressionistic information available to him, that
Plantocracy, its highest values being Control, Obedience, Punishment and Docility, is
probably the dominant source of faulty thinking, that may lead to abusive behaviors and
consequences, physical and psychological, for families multiple generations removed.
But the work is neither pedantic nor judgmental in addressing external, detrimental
factors that bind one to calamitous outcomes. Alcohol abuse and dependency,
extravagancy, gender imbalance are all portrayed experientially.
Th roughout the book there are repeated examples of the importance of fi lial duties,
retention of virtues and some travails brought upon oneself when his control is casually
surrendered to another. Exploitation is seen for what it is and discussed without rancor.
Th ere is much to enjoy as the readers imagination goes for a ride with folklore, myths
and adventure expressed as humorously as ever.

Autoren-Porträt von Leyland A. King
The author of this family saga has a unique perspective of what helps families. Having visited thousands of homes in professional contexts, he is not jaded in asserting that there are no perfect families but there are multitudes of families who are adroit at concealing the unflattering, while parading what they believe to be commendable. He accepts that, today, much is beyond the capacities of families who struggle. However, there are precepts that, if understood and honored, may at least alleviate some of the burdens families face.Reaching back objectively to his Irish great-grandfather and his great-grandmother of African ancestry, the author is deliberate in making key assumptions that the ethics of plantocracy resonate in our time and that intergenerational abuse and kinship disregard exacerbate our situation.
The writer tells his story in the style of a participant observer, examining certain decisions made and their tragic consequences, yet he skillfully manages and intersperses the story with very amusing episodes and folklore.
Author, F. Dexter Kingsley, former superintendent of police and retired child protective investigations program administrator holds a master’s degree in mental health counseling and agency development from Troy State University. He is also a certified public manager. Mr. King resides with his family in Florida, United States of America.
