Book excerpt: Parenting isn't rocket science, it's just brain surgery. And Dr. Joshua Straub has good news for you: You can do it! You don’t need to do all the “right” things as a parent. Both science and the Bible show us that the most important thing we can provide for our kids is a place of emotional safety. In other words, the posture from which we parent matters infinitely more than the techniques of parenting. Emotional safety—more than any other factor—is scientifically linked to raising kids who live, love, and lead well. Learn how to use emotional safety as a foundation from which you parent—and make a cultural impact that could change the world! In Safe House, Dr. Straub draws from his extensive research and personal experience to help you: - Foster healthy identity and social development in children of any age - Win the war without getting overwhelmed in the daily battles - Discipline in a way that builds relationship - Understand how the culture is affecting your child and what you can do about it - Cultivate responsible, self-regulating behavior in your kids - Establish an unshakeable sense of faith, morality, and values in your home - Feel more confident and peaceful as a parent - Find a greater perspective on parenting than what you might see on a daily basis Also includes a Safe House Parenting Assessment.

Download or read book The Portable Father written by Stacey Granger and published by Turner Publishing Company. This book was released on 1997-03-01 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For most of us, Dad always seemed to be the biggest and most wonderful person we knew. In spite of all that Mom did for us, Dad loomed almost larger than life: strong, fun-loving, the most handsomest man in the world, and - most important - the man who protected and loved us. It seemed that Dad was full of advice. He sure had plenty of it to go around. Some of it was to the point and made a great deal of sense, says Stacey Granger. Some of it made little sense at all to my brother, sister, and me, like when he said, "The more things change, the more they stay the same." But when he said, "There are three types of people in this world: those who make things happen, those who watch things happen, and those who sit around wondering what happened," we knew he was telling us which kind of person he wanted us to become. The Portable Father is a delightful collection of about 300 bits of wisdom, fun, and advice that fathers pass along to their children. Illustrated with 26 cartoons, The Portable Father is filled with sayings we have heard our own fathers speak or - now that we are adults - we've caught ourselves saying to our own children

It also made me realize how the healing process is a daily reward to me and my boys, and so worth the effort. My heart was smiling while my eyes filled with tears. Awesome book!"

The importance of a father can't be neglected or ignored at all. The Father is like a superhero who is always ready to take on everyday troubles for his children. The significance of a father is beyond words as he is the person who works tirelessly to fulfil the requirements of his family. To honour the contribution of all such fathers and fatherly figures and to celebrate the paternal bonding, a special day is observed every year as Father's Day.When it comes to buying gifts it's not always easy to buy for dads. They don't typically show desires for gifts from family.But at least once a year they do need some recognition for their hard work and love towards their family. Men are difficult to shop for, they have their own likes and finding the right gift isn't easy. You have to think about their wants and needs as well as considering your budget too. I get bombarded with the question, 'what does dad want?' Often, it's the simplest of things that can and will make the biggest impact. The cost of these gifts must factor into your budget and this will determine how much you can afford to spend. If that means finding a cheaper, yet still precious gifts to give your dad or your children's dad is important. Getting the right gift and one that's in budget is tough You need to start thinking about your options and what your budget is before the big day. So, start with making a list of the things you want to do and put them in order of what's most important. You don't have endless time and focusing on a few things will make the day a lot less stressful and give you more time to enjoy as a family. The memories that you make together are the most important part of the day. Getting things ready in advance will help to reduce the stress of trying to bring all the important points together. Think about what dad wants as a gift and don't buy anything without putting thought into what you are going to buy. Don't forget that sometimes the simplest ideas are often the best. It's never too late to make your dad feel that he is loved and appreciated. It doesn't even have to be Father's Day just for you to have the courage to tell him how important he is to you. Every day, remind him how special he is and how proud you are that you have him in your life. Father's Day is a really important day in any dad's year. I have highlighted forty five easy tips on how to make your husband's Father's Day special this year. 1. Tell your husband how much you appreciate him One of the nicest things you can do for your husband on Father's Day is tell him just how important he is to you and the little one/s. Now, if you're the type whose stumbles over words as soon as anything emotional tries to escape your mouth, it may be best to write the way you feel down inside his Father's Day card to make sure it sounds the way you want - but we'd really suggest telling him from the heart. Any person likes to know that they are valued and loved so if you want to make Father's Day really special for your Husband, tell him how special he is to you and your children. Just tell him and show that you love him, and make him feel that he's appreciated in whatever way feels right. 2. Give him a framed picture of he and the kids that you love. Tell him why you love it so much. 3. If he's into public displays of affection, post something on social media about how great a dad he is along with your favorite photo of him. Tag him in it. Rack up all the likes. 4. Did he just finish a workout? Surprise him with a delicious smoothie. 5. Give him a bouquet of flowers. It's wonderful to get flowers and men rarely do. If the kids picked them, all the better. 6. Make love together - Calculate wisely and create time for a wonderful time together. A good surprise time together will be appreciated if you are not seeing your menses. Do t
