TROPHY CHILD Saving Parents from Performance, Preparing Children for Something Greater then Themselves

God, Holy Scripture, and the author’s Christian ministry figure heavily in this easygoing lesson on how to do what’s best for your kids instead of what makes you feel better about yourself as a parent. Using stories about his own family and those he's helped in his ministry, Cunningham shares strategies for letting children learn from their mistakes, keeping your marriage strong, and preparing children to deal with the world and serve others. Kirby Heyborne’s humble confidence is a good fit for this material. His connection with the author’s wisdom and enthusiasm for the lively parent-child dialogue make it fun to hear. The advice and encouragement are written from a spiritual perspective but will be welcome by all whose overly ambitious parenting intentions have backed them, and their kids, into a corner.
