Hi, Mauro. Thanks for your feedback. Just to clarify, where we live, fireworks are not illegal. They're even sold in the grocery stores. When I was a kid, they were illegal, so many of my own reservations had to do with the same reaction you had.

However, the example wasn't intended to trivialize the content of the book, but to show that these lessons shouldn't be restricted to the corporate world. They have applicability in many more situations than simply that of the C-suite cabinet. Many leadership books limit the application to business contexts. Yet we have the ability to teach and use these lessons in our own homes now, where the future leaders of our world can be taught today what it means to accept responsibility and make wise, considered decisions.

After all, we're looking to grow more character-based leaders here. Being granted the opportunity to practice leadership skills, make decisions, understand the impact and consequences early are all huge things for kids to learn. Unfortunately, they don't have as many opportunities to do that as I'd like to see. That's why I choose to include this particular example in my review. It was a timely one for me.

Remove the fireworks and replace the decision with something that you're more comfortable with. The key take away of my review is, teaching young people to make wise and informed decisions is important, and I was thankful that the book inspired me to see an opportunity with my own son that I'd been missing.

The same methods can be used in any environment, and perhaps you're more comfortable seeing that in a business setting, I don't know. As a parent, I see too many kids who feel entitled and who are irresponsible. I'd like to stem that tide of potential trouble by seeing them be given more opportunities to feel of value, to see that they have something worthwhile to contribute. And I don't believe I'm alone in that.

However, I do apologize if my choice of story made the review less effective or simplistic for you. That wasn't my intent.
