Publisher's summary

From the cradle to college, tell your daughters the truth about life before they believe the culture's lies. For mothers with girls newborn to eighteen, Five Conversations You Must Have with Your Daughter is simply a must-have audiobook. Youth culture expert Vicki Courtney helps moms pinpoint and prepare the discussions that should be ongoing in the formative years. To fully address the dynamic social and spiritual issues and influencers at hand, several chapters are written for each of the conversations, which are: 1. You are more than the sum of your parts. 2. Sex is great... and worth the wait. 3. It's OK to dream about marriage and motherhood. 4. Don't be in such a hurry to grow up. 5. Girls gone wild are a dime a dozen - dare to be different. The audiobook also includes invaluable tips on having each conversation across the various stages of development: five and under, six to eleven, twelve and up.

Fantastic and Practical Advice

I was worried at the beginning that this book may have too much a religious undertone. However, by chapter 5 she began to provide statistical findings that were not related to any religious organizations throughout. Even though scripture was quoted, I was armed with so much valid information I can confidently and easily have a conversation with her about sex and her health now. Thank you!

A must read if you have daughter(s).

Why cant they hand these books out to new mothers. Helpful advice & discussions we should already know. We really need to help navigate our children to God.

5 Conversations from a Christian mom's perspective

I bought this book without knowing that it should have been "5 Conversations You Must Have With Your Daughter - from a Christian Mom's Perspective". The conversations are on topics we all need to discuss with our daughters, but when the reason for "being virtuous" is because "that is God's way", I ended up fast-forwarding through that chapter. I didn't the narrator's tone of voice - it was very authoritarian and preacher-like. I'll probably not buy books narrated by this person. However, I thought the advice was good and Vicki Courtney reveals her challenges with her own children, so the reader felt like the advice came from someone who did experience the struggles that we all go through in raising our daughters.

Excellent statistics quanifying the issues

Would you listen to 5 Conversations You Must Have With Your Daughter again? Why?

Vicki writes with excellent points and backs them with numbers. I found this refreshing and yet another way to illustrate to (my daughters and others) the importance of all of these issues.

Understanding the young woman in our house

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I do!!!! This is a must for anyone with a young lady in the house

What was one of the most memorable moments of 5 Conversations You Must Have With Your Daughter?

The honesty of the author - sharing her own challenges as mother and as being a woman herself

What about Pam Ward’s performance did you like?

She is sincere

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Laugh and cry. Regocnising myself touched deeper than I thought it would. Never had conversations like this with my mother and it is a gift being able to equip myself to treasure conversations like this with my beautiful 16 year old daughter

God, Purity, Modesty, Bible Verses...oh my!

What disappointed you about 5 Conversations You Must Have With Your Daughter?

The title and description of this book never mentioned that the author spent many years ministering to christian teens. Nor does it mention God or Christians once - but once you open the book you are assaulted by these Godly points of view. I would not have read it, if I had realized this.

What could Vicki Courtney have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

The title and cover of the book should have announced that I was walking in to be counseled by a GOOD CHRISTIAN MARRIED MOTHER who values purity and modesty at a very high level. Personally I hate the word purity. I think it causes many women to have problems with accepting the sexual being they are. I think it serves to control women and passes out large doses of shame that tends to affect women for large portions of their life.

Blame Everything On God

What disappointed you about 5 Conversations You Must Have With Your Daughter?

This book took all parenting away from the parent and dumped all responsibility in the hand of God as if to say I don't have to do a thing because whatever God wants is already pre-determined.
As a good Christian, I take the lord's lead and teach what I know is right. Showing the Lord down someone's throat is not parenting.

Would you ever listen to anything by Vicki Courtney again?

NO

If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from 5 Conversations You Must Have With Your Daughter?

NONE

Any additional comments?

How can I get my money back.

Just okay

There was definitely some good advice in this book that I will take from this but overall there was way too much religion for my liking. Forget the book and just go to church and you'd get the same thing out of it.
