Jeremy Kyle is not just the television presenter famous for his frank, and sometimes confrontational, approach to his guest's problems. He is also a son, a brother, a father, and a recovering addict. Every part of his life has in some way influenced and shaped the views he expresses on his show. From his happy upbringing in Reading, to his daily struggles with OCD and overcoming his problems with gambling, his knowledge of life's ups and downs comes from hard-won experience, and have taught him that honesty -- above all with oneself -- can be the key to a life well-lived. Here, in his first book, he takes a hard look at the social problems blighting modern Britain and seeks a route towards their solution. He stresses the need for the firm hand and unconditional love that seems so absent from certain young parents and questions the morals of those who see having children purely as a money-making exercise. And he maps out an agenda for change, insisting on the importance of personal responsibility and strong government in ironing out our nation's creases. Recounting his own story, alongside the tales of the people from his often controversial show, Kyle delves into the shady, neglected corners of our society and surfaces with a spirited call-to-arms. The result is not just an honest judgment of modern British life, but a no-holds-barred account of his own, told with all the candour, spirit and honesty that have become his trademark. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Books.

Teenage pregnancy, alcoholism, juvenile delinquency, absentee parents, soaring rates of drug addiction—modern Britain can often seem like a hive of social dysfunction. But Jeremy Kyle argues that all these national and very public issues can trace their origins back to a much smaller, private sphere: the family home. Over the last 20 years, he argues, traditional family values have declined to the point where young adults with little or no guidance marry too early, have children before they understand the responsibilities of parenting, and end up being swamped by the demands of their new lives. The cycle repeats and the problems worsen, impacting every level of society. It’s time this downward spiral was halted. Jeremy Kyle argues the need for the firm hand and unconditional love that seem absent from certain young parents more intent on clubbing than taking responsibility for the life they have brought into this world. He will question the ethics and morals of those who see having children as something of a career, and he will map out an agenda for change, insisting on the dual importance of personal responsibility and strong government in ironing out the nation’s many creases. Using experiences gleaned from the upheavals in Kyle’s own life, alongside the stories of people he has met and helped on his show, and told with his trademark candor, this is a forthright and controversial look at modern British life that will outrage some, anger others, appease many, but will doubtless set the debates raging., Hardcover, Label: Hodder & Stoughton, Hodder & Stoughton, Produktgruppe: Book, Publiziert: 2009-06-25, Studio: Hodder & Stoughton, Verkaufsrang: 2944062.
