Synopsis
This inspirational parenting guide offers proactive and positive steps to raising respectful, engaged, and grateful children. In an effort to raise children with a healthy view of themselves, parents often focus on self-esteem rather than self-respect. And author Jill Rigby says thereâÈçs a big difference. ItâÈçs the difference between self-centered and others-centered children, the difference between performance-driven and purpose-focused teenagers. Raising Respectful Children in a Disrespectful World examines three different styles of parentingâÈ'parent-centered, child-centered, and character-centered . Parent-centered parents are more concerned with their own agenda than their childâÈçs best interest. Child-centered parents are more concerned with their childâÈçs approval than their childâÈçs well-being. Character-centered parents are more concerned with their childâÈçs character than their childâÈçs comfort. Drawing a distinction between performance and purpose, this book maintains that rather than focusing on what you want your child to do, you ask what you want your child to become. Finally, Rigby calls for parents to discipline (teach) their children rather than punish them. With wisdom and insight, Jill Rigby shares age-appropriate ways to set boundaries with children without building walls of separation. Whether youâÈçre parenting tots or teens, Raising Respectful Children in a Disrespectful World offers valuable advice for cultivating a house of respect.
