I just submitted a great book for parents. It's called Proactive Parenting, and it's by James R. Lucas. Here's what the back cover of the book has to say.
One of the greatest fears of parenting is that there is simply no way of predicting how your kids will turn out.
Even well-meaning friends and childhood experts say, "Just try to survive adolescence. There is not much you can do; so just hope for the best."
But nowhere does the Bible say parents must settle for less. In fact, God's Word teaches numerous strategies for effective parenting. Author Jim Lucas passionately shares those strategies with you in Proactive Parenting.
Why is this the only kind of parenting that works? Because it is based strictly on what God's Word saysnot the unreliable wisdom of men. And every one of these strategies is supported with dynamic illustrations that will help you put these lessons to work right away in your family life.
Read this book carefully. Let God speak to your heart. Then put these ideas to work.
