Publisher's summary

Is “joy-building” the secret to raising mature healthy kids?

Joy-filled kids aren’t always happy kids, but they do know how to work for and wait for what is truly satisfying in life. In The 4 Habits of Raising Joy-Filled Kids, you will discover a tool box full of skills that you can use with your children to help them grow in maturity and live with greater joy.

These tools help your kids, from infants to teens, build skills like:

  • Regulating upset emotions so they can return to joy
  • Forming a stable identity that doesn’t change with each new emotion
  • Developing discernment to distinguish between what is satisfying and what is only temporarily pleasurable
  • Discovering heart values and not just living to please others
  • Building “joy bonds” rather than “fear bonds”

The skills you’ll learn in The 4 Habits of Raising Joy-Filled Kids will not only help you parent your children well but they will also help you grow joy in your family.

No matter the age, it’s still pertinent

Parenting isn’t easy. In fact, it can be quite daunting. This book is designed to equip you with life-giving, life-changing, tangible and attainable skills that will put your job as a parent in clearer perspective, eliminating all of the outside noise of what’s right and what’s wrong in how to raise our kids.

It places value back into our children and helps us establish an authentic long-lasting relationship with them.

It’s the best book I have found in parenting. It’s not a million pages long. It’s not heavy or hard to understand. The tools given are easy to apply in order to build the skills necessary to increase confidence as a parent and raise functioning adults.

If you’re expecting children, are a parent of grown adults or have any in-between, this book has your name written all over it. I promise, you will be grateful you listened.

Our children are the sparkle in our eye…show them in every interaction (good or bad) that that truly is the case.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
