christian parents
i love the idea of really teaching a child's heart, shaping their character and giving children a godly worldview rather than simply manipulating behavior. i appreciated his examples and i felt like his love for children and parenting really came out in the book. i know some people have an issue with him and his book, but i was glad to have read it. although that might be because i just went to a parenting conference taught by him and he's much better in person than in writing.

The focus of this book is on internal training of the heart which is the key to true obedience as the child grows into adulthood. Extremely insightful and practical application. Much more effective in developing a child than focusing only on behavioral methods. Training the heart will produce a mature person who is self-motivated by conviction and not only by external do's and don'ts.

This book has been a true guide for me as a mom. I would recommend it to anyone. Those expecting their first child. Those who are in the midst of raising children. All can gleen great wisdom from this book. All parents should step back and look at the reason they discipline.

This will be another useful book when the Lord gives us children. In the meantime, Tedd Tripp provides many Godly principles to apply to "our" school children.

The workbook is essential to dive deeper into how God can work through us as parents -- and to learn how to love, honor & glorify Him in all we do!
