"In this age of parenting the perfect child and the stress that goal brings upon all parties, this tremendously powerful resource offers a quieter, stronger, more effective approach. Become friends with this book and listen to its wisdom. One of my favorite lines is, 'Who is this child, and how do we parent her to become who God made her to be?' Ask yourself what kind of life you would have had if your parents had adopted that approach! The chapters and parenting playbook are remarkable and entertaining--get your highlighter out and mark those ideas that resonate with you. Think about how they apply to your family--your children, nieces or nephews, or grandchildren. Then put them to work and experience for yourself how everything changes. Your kids will love you for it. I promise."

--Brent O'Bannon, author of Let's Talk Strengths
