Parenting by the Book: Biblical Wisdom for Raising Your Child

With a down to earth, warm, and humorous style, one of America's top family psychologists sets forth a virtually stress free, biblically based system of childrearing that encourages family growth in harmony with God's Word.

Imagine respectful, responsible, obedient children who entertain themselves without TV or video games, do their own homework, and have impeccable manners. A pie in the sky fantasy? Not so, says bestselling author John Rosemond. Any parent can raise 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.

As America's most widely read parenting and family expert, Rosemond offers practical, Bible-based, time-tested advice that will help parents be the best they can possibly be, with children of all ages. Instead of cultivating high self-esteem in your children, Rosemond recommends, instilling self respect, which comes from teaching them the Three R's: Respect for others, a willingness to accept Responsibility, and a Resourceful attitude toward the challenges of life.
