Trata-se de ensaios diversos que abordam as mazelas sociais brasileiras, a temática do planejamento familiar e a importância da educação sexual nos lares e nas salas de aula. "Cada dia que passa, nós temos menos tempo à futura geração. Nossa ação educacional, como tudo aquilo que podemos fazer nessa vida, tem um prazo de validade desconhecido. Jornal de hoje: 'Faltam juízes da Infância'. 'Recém-nascido abandonado'. Há algum tempo faltavam pediatras e maternidades... Realmente ainda falta muita coisa. O orçamento público é limitado e seu uso exige uma burocracia enorme. Reciclar plástico é ótimo, mas a urgência é outra. Garrafa d’água vazia não sente sede. Crianças sentem. Crianças têm fome. Quantas delas você imagina agora estarem necessitadas apenas no Brasil? Faltam pais no Brasil. Sobram problemas de infância". Todos os royalties serão doados às crianças em tratamento no GRAACC.
