About this listen
Picture respectful, responsible, obedient children who entertain themselves without television or video games, do their own homework, and have impeccable manners. A pie-in-the-sky fantasy? Not so, says family psychologist and best-selling author John Rosemond. Any parent who so desires can grow children who fit that description - happy, emotionally healthy children who honor their parents and their families with good behavior and do their best in school.
In the 1960s, American parents stopped listening to their elders when it came to child rearing and began listening instead to professional experts. Since then, raising children has become fraught with anxiety, stress, and frustration. The solution, says John, lies in raising children according to biblical principles, the same principles that guided parents successfully for hundreds of years. They worked then, and they still work now!
Through his nationally syndicated newspaper column and 11 books, John has been helping families raise happy, well-behaved children for more than 30 years. In Parenting by the Book, which John describes as both a "mission and a ministry," he brings parents back to the uncomplicated basics.

Story
Modern parents are stressed out and tired. They’ve tried countless parenting books, many of which are harsh, fear-based books that loving parents instinctively reject. As Christians, we frequently believe that the battle for a child's heart and soul is fought on the outside with rigid rules, when in fact the opposite is true. Rejecting rigidity and checklists that don't work, Dr. Kimmel recommends a parenting style that is the opposite, emphasizing the importance of communicating the unconditional love that Christ offers and affirming this timeless message of grace to one's family.

Story
Parents, educators, and the media wring their hands about the plight of America's children and teens - soaring rates of emotional problems, limited coping skills, disengagement from learning - and yet there are ways to reverse these disheartening trends. Teach Your Children Well acknowledges that every parent wants successful children. However, until we are clearer about our core values and the parenting choices that are most likely to lead to authentic, and not superficial, success, we will continue to raise exhausted, externally driven, impaired children.

After serving together in pastoral ministry for 40 years, Phil and Diane Comer know those hopes and fears well. Thirty-seven years ago, they became parents themselves. And like all new parents, they were intimidated and unsure about how to take on the task of spiritually training their young children.

This book is a total paradigm shift. It really challenged my deeply indoctrinated programming on child rearing. Boy has modern child psychology ever brainwashed us all away from the truth of scripture.

More parents need to read this.
Learn to lead your children instead of being led by them. shocker but their children. by definition they don't know what is best for them. Be the adult. don't demand. command. Learn to measure success differently. not through worldly accolades but by a good and honest spirit and a moral and just heart. 10/10. would read again.

The difference this book made in my family’s life is unbelievable. My two year old is like a different child in the best way. I was so confused about what the right way to parent was. Between social media, the news, and other people’s opinions, I was at a loss. This book helped me to find my way at just the right time and learn how to be the leader my son needs. I would give it 100 stars if I could.

The Time Is Now
Question: When is the best time to plant an oak tree?
Answer: 30 years ago
Question: When is the second best time?
Answer: Today!
As a father of seven, ranging from 4yrs to 25yrs old as of 01/2023 I can only say I wish I would have had this wisdom shared with me 25 yrs ago. That being said, I am so happy to have it now in my hands so that I may be the best disciple maker.
P.S. Parenting doesn't stop when they leave the nest, let alone when they start giving us grandbabies.
