Overall, I felt this book was a good approach to helping
children do things that are challenging. One of my favorite ideas, which we
implement in our house, is having a “family type gospel time” where parents
discuss Bible/scripture stories with their children and the principles we can
learn from them.
I do feel this book
expressed how important it is to involve God in your parenting lives and with
your children when you set goals, etc. I also felt like this book helped me
realize that what you think and say to your children is not as important as
what you do. Forgiveness and asking help of your children to you is just as
important as them asking it of you.
I also found helpful of the four areas of conscience we need
to focus on in our children, do what’s right, deal with wrongs, be honest, and
care about others. It has been a few weeks since I have finished this book, but
I have marked several passages and areas that I feel are worth revisiting.
I do like this book involved God so much in the parenting
strategies. I feel if you have God on your side, your parenting can only become
better.
