Synopsis
How will parents' values affect their children? What does it take to instill values in kids? Serving dinner to the homeless or showing up regularly for religious services can motivate and inspire children, but there's no guarantee that these activities alone will help kids develop values.
The most effective way to instill values in a child is for parents to use their own values to guide their parenting decisions all day, every day. And Harriet Heath shows parents how. She also explains how developmental stages, learning styles and temperament patterns all impact how children learn -- and demonstrate -- values.
This thought-provoking book offers parents:
-- Confidence in their parenting decisions;
-- Guidance as they deal with challenging behavior from babyhood to adolescence; and
-- Reassurance that the values they're teaching can lead to a fulfilling life for their children.
