Overview

This book is for parents who believe that children are born in sin and need discipline to guide them to do right. If you believe that children are born perfect and need only nurturing to bring out the natural good in them this book is not for you. You may even find it offensive. The book is entirely founded on literal, Biblical standards with two parts: The Biblical family and Biblical child training. In the first part the author outlines in detail God's design for the family. He includes the headship order, the role of the father, the wife and children. There is a chapter on serving together as a family. Although the author points out in the introduction that "this section is not intended to be an in depth study on the husband wife relationship. (There are presently many fine books written on this subject.) Rather the principles important to laying a proper foundation in the home that are vital to the successful training of happy and obedient children are covered." The second part focuses on the author's four part training box: Love, discipline, teaching and example. The author also comments on this section "no one chapter in this section is the key to training happy and obedient children. The chapters must be taken as a whole." In Love he highlights the biblical love and natural love that is needed by children. Discipline part one goes over the when and why a child needs discipline. Discipline part two discusses the how and where a child should receive discipline. He uses Bible verses literally in reference to spanking and gives the reasoning behind it. The teaching chapter encourages parents to have formal and spontaneous teaching from the Bible. Lastly, he illustrates the vital role parents have as Biblical examples to their children. For someone looking to shape their family after the literal design from the Bible this book gives clear, understandable instruction.

Happy & Obedient Children

This is so simple & basic it is easy to apply. These are Biblical based tips that worked for my children & are now working with my grand children. I got copies for each of my daughters to use with their children. Great resource! Recommend for everyone!

Excellent!!!

It has a wonderful teaching. Every parent should read it and apply it. Very good!!

A MUST for Christian parents

This book teaches what 99% of Christian parents don't bother to learn: Biblical discipline and respect for children and adults. Spanking is mandated in the Bible but without proper reconcilation with the Lord and the child's parents, spanking is simply child abuse. This book helps distinguish between abuse and spanking and what parents should consider important and Biblical when deciding on how to raise their children. My husband and I are giving the books to our parents so that they understand what we're trying to do. I highly recommend this to parents who are interested in what the Lord has to say about childrearing. The principles in this book are all pulled from the Bible.

necesary parenting material

If you would like to raise Godly children in the most biblical, loving way try this simple to read and understand book. It will bring peace and happiness to your home. You will learn to enjoy your children not tolerate them. I highly recommend this book and give it away to all who ask why my children are the way they are - happy and obedient.
