    Whether your kids are toddlers or teenagers, this book, Raising Warriors: Preparing Your Children for a Godly Life has something for you. I’ve never seen such a comprehensive guide to Christian parenting before

    Long car rides with deep discussions of being charitable, treating others the way we expect to be treated ,and prayer works.

    I remember my dad's two favourite speeches about boys and the value of education! They were the same, just packaged differently in elementary school, at the beginning of High School, at the end of High School, and while attending University!

    What a wonderful subject and presentation. 100% reflects both parents and kids actions and conversations.

    I love how practical this is! When my sons became teens I truly thought they had LOST THEIR MINDS. I wish I'd heard this back then. Especially with boys, they want that autonomy!

      I agree raising teenage boys in this day & age is really really hard

    Made an agreement with my children before we got to teenage years that having a special friend would be best at junior in high school. Explained old enough to earn earn, close enough to graduation to finish if an unexpected event happens.

    1. Speeches are not communication
    2. Learn the art of giving advice
    3. You will not need as much discipline - set expectations and issue consequences. You are no longer a policeman but you are a judge

    What if your kid is a total reprobate and does not want to act like an adult, and is poisoning the other kids in the house?

    “To teach not to need me”, to be done. Sounds great but emotional to let go.

    Do you have advise on bed time for 15 year old girls. Do you just let them go when they want?

    I'm surprised that you accept the American dating culture this much as Christians. I grew up in a youth church where we hung out in groups but had no dating culture. We were friends and there was no flirting or dating. People were typically at least in their twenties before they started dating, that is, almost ready to marry. And so more mature decisions could be made. I would not let my kids go off alone to date at 16, since it would serve no purpose.

      Thank you for this comment. I always wondered why Americans allow their teens to date so early, isn't it fornication or is it a platonic relationship?

      You can be involved or they will sneak and do it behind your back. Also I grew up with this idea of dating to marry. I married very young to my first boyfriend who I was pressured by Christianity to marry. Who didn’t treat me well and it wasn’t the right match. But my parents approved because he was a christian. I would have known if I had experienced dating different people and got to know what was the right romantic match for me.
      American dating culture how so? Where do you live? Because most countries teens are dating or having romantic experiences. It’s very normal.

    Mine are 24 and 20. The 24 year old is almost ready. The 20 year old thinks he knows it all. 🤦🏽‍♀️

    Ooops. I’ve never connected to any friend at all for more than 6 months in my entire life.
    Co-workers, colleagues, sure. Not otherwise.
    Never considered telling my kids to connect, rather, that people come and go, and connect to your career, as it will be your only constant.

    Do these methods still apply to 17 year olds with addictions?
