You have to be there day in and day out for your kids and your entire family, no matter what. You cannot do it half-heartedly, and you can never call in sick even if you want to, since it is essentially a 24/7, 365 day a year, full time job.
However, what happens if you become overwhelmed with all sorts of family issues such as discipline problems with your kids, especially if they are already entering that perenially rebellious teenager stage, and you find yourself with absolutely nobody to talk to? Where can you cast your net to get parcels of inspiration and information during such unavoidable situations? Aside from praying, you can also stop for a while, take a deep breath, settle down and read a good parenting book in order to get some valuable inspiration and information about how you can properly handle your kids, as well as developing that strong bond within the family.
In this regard, one of the most informative and helpful books that I have recently come across which discusses this topic is the new book from Josh Hoopes entitled "West Ridge Academys Ten Parenting Dilemma Busters. Unlike other books on parenting which usually presents vague generalized statements packaged as parenting principles, you can't really feel the connection that they might as well be talking about some generic family straight out of a Hollywood script. Or other books which throw uber-detailed solutions to all sorts of possible problems in the family, that you almost feel like reading the operations manual to a new electronic appliance which denotes a total lack of emotional connection; and kids will certainly protest to this especially if they will feel that their intelligence and creativity is about to be curtailed with various restrictions.
Josh Hoopes West Ridge Academys Ten Parenting Dilemma Busters provides some sound parenting principles which are based on inherent human characteristics and fundamental values, which are used to dissect the most pressing issues and concerns faced by most modern families. It pays homage back to the basics of parenting by offering timeless truths and simple solutions that you will certainly agree, "The best things in life, indeed are free!
It consists of ten chapters which are loaded with one informative and valuable parenting tip after another. Chapter 1 talks about the importance of spending some consistent time together with the whole family as well as engaging in some paly-time activities. Chapter 2 gives parents some suggestions on how to remain patient but still staying firm in disciplining their kids. Chapter 3 discusses how parents can manage to find quality time for their family no matter how busy they become. Chapter 4 talks about the value of a proper diet for your children. Chapter 5 offers some suggestions for parents to help their child who may be overly shy, as this can be a socially-paralyzing impediment if not treated in time. Chapter 6 talks about ways to assist your child if he happens to be falling behind in school. Chapter 7 is a light discussion on the possible positive effects of watching good movies for your children. Chapter 8 reiterates the value of connecting with your teen at all times. Chapter 9 gives out advices on how you can possibly rescue your teen who may be struggling with some substance abuse problems. Finally, chapter 10 states that its never too early to teach your kids about financial literacy.
With such a wide range of helpful and very practical solutions intended to help parents face their most challenging parenting problems, Josh Hoopes has absolutely delivered a home run in terms of providing the best principles in becoming an effective parent.
