Full of valuable advice and practical tips, The Parenting Book is a tool to come back to again and again.

What the authors say: 'We believe that healthy families are at the heart of a functioning society. We developed our courses and wrote The Marriage Book and The Parenting Book because the church has the opportunity to offer support people at a practical, grass roots level. Every family strengthened makes a difference to a child and to our nation.'

21 chapters divided into the following sections:

• Understanding how families work
• Meeting our children's needs
• Building character through setting boundaries
• Helping our children make good choices
• Passing on our beliefs and values.
