Rocks For Families : The Building Blocks For Successful, Happy, Healthy Families

Rocks for Families lays out a hard-hitting yet soft landing path parents can confidently use for raising their children. This book is a no-nonsense look at the positive growth structure needed for every child, breaking it down into seven easy to understand "rocks" or areas of the child's spiritual, physical and emotional needs. Simple, practical solutions are provided, and are based on sound scriptural precepts for healthy growth. Dr. Janelle shifts the focus, however, away from a child-centric approach to parenting, to a parent-centric emphasis and the enormous power parental example plays in the child's life.Dr. Janelle begins by saying, "I believe that there are two basic ways of looking at raising and leading a family: what we do versus who we are. Though the distinction seems small, it is anything but. It's the difference between getting our kids to behave versus being godly parents. The former is focused on doing the correct thing in the correct order and getting them to do the correct thing when we want them to. The latter is focused on looking in the mirror and making sure that who we are is a functioning, healthy person for them to follow in the first place."
