Parenting the Strong-Willed Child: Fortifying Our Youth and Healing Our Prodigals

Year after year, we lose many youth to the enticements and sophistries of the world. As a bishop, counselor, and parent, Kevin Hinckley has watched the painful process of rebellion occur over and over as he has worked to help those who are scarred by sin to come back. From a foundation of gospel-based concepts and clinical experience, he identifies things parents can do to avoid the heartache of rebellion — and offers help and hope to parents of children who have already strayed. Sharing experiences from other parents, he shows how to teach children to rely on divine guidance as they confront the challenge of growing up in a world that seems bent on their destruction. This book presents practical solutions and profound insights that will help any parent fulfill this most sacred of all responsibilities.
