5.0 out of 5 stars An awesome guide to recapture family values., October 4, 1999
By A Customer
James Dobson is a visionary and wonderful mentor to parents and married people everywhere. The insensitive person who wrote the bad review needs to look around and see what has happened to our America since people 'don't pray' as that person claims. I run a home business and have three children and James Dobson's wonderful material has been there to guide me every step of the way with childrearing and married life. That woman must realize that when her daughter moves out, she will be 'club hopping' and going home to sleep alone due to her callous attitude. This country needs to go back to the family and religious values that it was built upon to regain our civility. I praise James Dobson wholeheartedly for trying to pass on this great legacy of faith and family values! About the pms, I believe that the girl writing the negative article is a perfect example of what Dr. Dobson meant by mood instability.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dares to tackle tough and touchy subject, January 1, 1999
By A Customer
Dr. Dobson dares to go where most people are afraid to go in today's political correctness quagmire. Children look to their fathers to lead and so many fathers have abandoned that role. It is refreshing to read straight talk about men's roles in the family and society. You owe it to yourself to read this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars Straight Talk, February 10, 2009
By Sara (Alaska) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Straight Talk to Men and Their Wives (With Built-In Study Guide) (Paperback)
Straight Talk to Men and Their Wives is as valid today as it was when it was written. A timeless message for all couples.
