DESCRIPTION:
A powerful read even for a Non-Christian. Stephanie M Nason Warning- this is a Christian based book that expresses ideas in a biblical manner. Having said that, I recommend this book for any struggling parent regardless of religious background. These are common sense principles that are merely backed up by biblical teachings- meaning the ideas could be from any religion, universal in a way.A powerful read- as a non- Christian I was able to 'ignore' the heavy Biblical references and hold on to the exceptional advice.As someone who is right in the thick of boundary work with my two small children (4 and 2), this book has been something. KerryWhite said Good Stuff. This is a great book and can definitely help you with your kids if you let it. The negative reviews clearly didn't want to try something different --- maybe because they think they know it all already. For me and my wife, we are very glad we got this and went through it with our small group.FYI, don't just get the videos and participant's guide - get the book with it and read it along with the guide. For planning, the guide is 8 sessions long.------Who Should Read This Book?Boundaries with Kids was written for parents of children of all ages, from infancy to the teen years. . Is the child the only one with a problem? I bought this book hoping it would help me as I care for a parent with dementia, and found it taught me more about myself than the person I wanted to help. My "child" is losing the ability to recognize reality and take responsibility, so I may be the only one who strengthens boundaries. The book shows how a parent's lack of boundaries keeps a child from learning reality bites and one must grow up anyway. If a child can learn to solve his problems early, he will have more time to enjoy his successes.
