a reflective tool for every parent who seeks to understand the implications of
parenting in today’s world.
Across the
sweep of twelve engaging chapters, the authors address pressing questions and
prevalent challenges that modern parents face. From understanding the
dimensional crises in current parenting models in a chapter titled “Why Modern
Parenting is in Crisis,” to navigating the critical task of shaping young boys
into men of integrity and respect in a chapter titled, “How to Raise Boys to
Become Real Men,”.
The subjects
tackled in this book are both timeless and timely.

discussing the “Mistakes Parents Commit Against Their Children,” encouraging a
path of awareness and correction that many will find indispensable.

wisdom, offering solutions that resonate with spiritual, emotional, and
intellectual needs of modern-day parenting.
