5.0 out of 5 stars 20 Rules for a Great Family, October 6, 2007

By	Tara S. Jirschefske "Jirschefske" (Lakewood, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Some of the rules are well known but it was nice to have them listed with others that I wouldn't have thought about. Just being able to have a list of simple rules to better your family (based on Biblical principles) in one book that is easy to read was helpful. I'm hoping to get a few more books to pass out to families in my neighborhood that have forgotten how to be a family.

I absolutely LOVE this book! It's a quick easy read with wonderful scripture verses and prayers for each rule! One of my very favorite parenting books! My husband is even reading it now and enjoying it!!!
