Raising Great Kids Ages 6-12 Workbook

What Does it Take to Raise Great Kids?

The grade-school years from ages 6 to 12 are a time of learning more than reading, writing and arithmetic. Your child is also developing the one thing above all others that will determine his or her success in life: character.

The Raising Great Kids Workbook for Parents of School-Age Children helps you instill traits that are vital to your son or daughter’s future well-being; connection, responsibility, reality, competence, morality and worship/spiritual life. This workbook is filled with self-tests, discussion material, exercises and practical application that can help you turn key concepts into a natural way to parenting.

Henry Cloud and John Townsend show how biblical character includes competent functioning in other areas such as relationship skills, responsibility and follow through, self-control, perseverance, delay of gratification, ability to lose and grieve, and the ability to forgive. Most resources for parents emphasize either structure and moral functioning over love, safety, and security or vice versa. Raising Great Kids provides a balance between these two parenting approaches.
