Another winner: practical and helpful

I have loved the Boundaries series and seen great fruit when applied to the other areas of my life. This one, specifically catered to the unique parent-child relationship is equally pragmatic and helpful.

So helpful

Has so many wisdom nuggets that I couldn’t write them all down! I wish there was a workbook my 7 year old could work through on this topic.
