Outstanding book on parenting with Christian perspective July 15, 2006
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
The 5 Love Languages of Children by Gary D. Chapman & Ross Campbell is another installment in Chapman's excellent Love Languages series. I've read the book for couples and the one for teens, and both helped me understand my family much better. The premise is that each person has a primary love language (the five being: physical touch, words of affirmation, acts of service, quality time, and gifts) and to fully fill somone's love tank, we need to speak their language. Unfortunately, we all too often speak our own language fluently, but if that's not the language of the child, they don't feel loved and it leads to resentment on both sides. Chapman does a wonderful job of giving examples of how to figure out your child's love language as well as ideas for learning to speak it. There's also information on discipline and handling anger. There is so much good parenting packed into this slim book! Since reading the book, I've been able to understand my own children better, and I've seen changes in them. These are lessons to be learned and clung to.
Exection of Covey's Concept of Emotional Bank Account June 18, 2006
3 out of 4 found this review helpful
As a husband with two children, this book is outstanding in providing a way to execute Covey's concept of making deposits into the emotional bank accounts of those you care very deeply for. I read the book years ago and still find it has great value.

Essential Gift for New and Long-Standing Parents March 19, 2006
6 out of 7 found this review helpful
It's never too late to get with the program. See my primary review of "The Five Love Languages" for additional details. This author has a simple formula, easy to understand and easy to apply. This book is the best possible gift for both new and long-standing parents, especially in this age to two-income families, striving to fit too much into each day, and in the face of the Internet and television as a corosive alternative to parenting. I'm no saint--barely competent as a parent--this book is in my case a badly needed intervention. It took three children for me to figure this stuff out. Buy five copies and gently make a difference to five families.
