Christian Parenting Handbook (2013) Launch- winners announced

Launch week for the Christian Parent Handbook 29 April - 5 May. Plus win some amazing prizes from the publisher including an $100 amazon giftcard!


The psychology perspective
I was very excited to be part of the Christian Parenting Handbook (2013) launch. The Christian Parenting Handbook hits the shelves 29 April. While preparing to start full time work in private practice as a psychologist, I was interested in equipping myself with powerful tools. This is when I stumbled on the Christian Parenting Handbook. The authors don't try to reinvent the wheel. Instead, they have put some pretty basic principles of parenting in an easy to digest form filled with examples and tips. While it's not evidence based practice, each parent can carefully monitor the use of ideas in this book to determine if it will work for your family. 

My Christian perspective
While parents don't want their kids to run wild and be disobedient, very few parents would want kids who are robotic and can't think for themselves. The authors have balanced this well by promoting what they call "Heart parenting". To me, it was all about Honor based parenting. Teaching kids to honor parents just as God told us in the old (Exodus 20:12) and new testaments (Ephesians 6:2). 

My overall rating: 

Excellent

Not a book you can digest in 2 hours, but certainly a book to occasionally draw ideas from. 

There is sooo much going on in Launch week.
