Summary: Not a fix kids quick book
Comment: If you want to read a book that will help you lead your children into a relationship with Christ through your obedience in training them properly, then this is the book for you. I have found that the best parenting tips are those that bring my lack of faith and obedience to my attention. How can I expect my children to obey me when I don't obey my father in heaven? This book teaches a lifestyle of training. Training your children in the way they should go - obedence to their creator. Tedd Tripp speaks clearly and his guidence is very Biblical. However, beware you will not change your children over night. In using Mr. Tripps biblical teaching I have noticed my children's hearts change toward me and their God. It is a blessing to see. It only encourages me to continue on this path. This is a great book. I have copies in paperback and CD. When I see that I am being lazy in my parenting I just put in a CD and I am reminded of my duty as a parent, to shepherd my child's heart.

Summary: Inspiring Book
Comment: Not only does this book give you insight for raising Godly children, it challenges you to become a better example to your children and correct the things in your life that are not Christ-like.

Summary: worse than Pearls
Comment: The Pearls are Christians that advocate beating children. Tedd Tripp's book is more insidious than that because it seems reasonable, but it's the same idea dressed in sheeps clothing. The theology is basically "beating the sin" out of your child- which isn't Christian at all!! I recommend something more along the lines of "Grace Based Discipline".

Summary: Awesome
Comment: I had no idea how many things I was doing wrong!!! And everyone thinks I am a good parent. By the worlds standard, I suppose I am. By Gods standard I was falling way short! Ted Tripp has shown me how to be kind and loving to my children. To explain to them why we do what we do, not just because I want it, but, because God calls up to do it! What a concept! IF YOU ARE A CHRISTIAN PARENT, THIS IS A MUST READ! I am enjoying parenting so much more, now that I am in line with Gods will!

Summary: very good but To train up a child better
Comment: This is a good book but if you want an invaluable resource for raising children To Train Up a Child by Michael Pearl is even better. It is clearly the best resource a parent can have if they truly love their children. I am well aware that many people who do NOT do their homework say it is bad but if you ask them if they have read the book they almost always say NO! If you train the child with love you will DISCIPLINE 90% less than if you do not.
