Raising Self-reliant Children in a Self-indulgent World: Seven Building Blocks for Developing Capable Young People

Description

While the argument rages between strict and permissive parenting, both sides miss the point. If our goal as parents and educators is to help children become capable adults, then teaching them to make proper decisions and become self-reliant is paramount. With the bestselling classic Raising Self-Reliant Children in a Self-Indulgent World, authors and educational speakers H. Stephen Glenn and Jane Nelsen have created a book that no parent or teacher can afford to ignore -- an inspiring, workable formula for developing closeness, trust, dignity, and respect, as well as for creating self-discipline, responsibility, good judgment, and perseverance in children.

Over the years, this invaluable guide has helped thousand of parents instill children with character-building traits that last a lifetime.
