4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent practical advice for Christian parents, August 10, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Common-Sense Parenting (Paperback)

This book helps Christian parents to review and reassess their family life. The ideas are not particularly original but are important principles which we all need to be reminded of. I would recommend this book unreservedly to all Christian parents - it would make a great baptism present!

This book gives you many good ideas on to build a family, not just live your life. To have fun with your kids with out the use of a TV.. and some practical parenting advice as well. I expecially liked the lists of books in the Appendix, all of them are Old childhood favorites I had forgotten about.
