With parents increasingly searching for new ways to improve their parenting skills and build their relationships with their children, the timing is right for an enlightened, comprehensive guide that covers almost every conceivable situation, age and challenge parents face today. Mother, author, and former radio talk-show host MaryAnn Ball has delivered just this gift.
A Parenting Book for Today’s Children
Based on the premise that the current generation of children consists of evolved humans with far different skill sets and a vastly different future than that of previous generations, MaryAnn Ball’s new book, Preparing The Millennial Child, Your Personal Parenting Class and Relationship Guide, is unique in its field. Here’s why:
- This parenting book is, by nature, encouraging, informative and inspiring to parents and caregivers. Written in the Language of Encouragement, Preparing the Millennial Child inspires parents and caregivers to first improve their own lives, and then their parenting skills and relationships. It focuses on helping parents joyfully take responsibility for the stewardship of their children and facilitates them in creating the home they truly desire for themselves and their families.
- This Book fills a void for Parents. While there have been many self-help parenting books published in the past few years, there has been a dearth of relevant books devoted to the improvement and education of parents specifically for today’s children. This book will speak to parents who are looking for material to educate and support them in parenting their unique children, many of whom do not respond successfully to traditional parenting styles.
- A Comprehensive Parenting Approach. Rather than targeting a specific age group, type of child, or any one particular set of parenting dilemmas, Preparing the Millennial Child covers the whole spectrum. It includes in-depth guides for effective Kind and Firm discipline techniques
that simultaneously encourage responsible behavior, develop healthy self-esteem, and build lasting and unconditional relationships. It offers a multitude of suggestions and fosters ideas within parents for the creation of custom built parenting plans. - A Complete Parenting Course. To get the most out of your discovery of the principles found in Preparing the Millennial Child we have prepared the interactive companion workbook Millennial Parent's Notebook.
The Millennial Parent's Notebook will enhance your experience and allow you to internalize what you will need to create your ideal family. It goes hand in hand with the book. - More than a parenting book, this is also a relationship guide. Because the suggestions for building relationships offered in Preparing the Millennial Child are based on sound principles, they work well across the board to strengthen every relationship—regardless of age, gender or circumstance.
It reaches parents AND children on a heart-felt, personal level. Preparing the Millennial Child is formatted as a personal parenting class, allowing readers the opportunity to study and move from session to session at their own pace according to their individual circumstances. It contains assignments for parents to complete as well as many suggestions for additional study. It encourages measurable personal growth through planning and record keeping. It features and emphasizes joy in raising, loving and learning from our amazing Millennial Children. - A user-friendly and easy to read book. Preparing the Millennial Child is a parenting manual, though it reads more like a story than a psychology textbook. It is filled with valuable ideas, humorous and moving accounts, and useful examples of parent/child interactions.
It comes with a companion parenting workbook. The custom workbook is offered in the form of an additional, pre-packaged CD or by downloadable software. Parents may work through the suggestions and assignments in the book in an organized manner, session by session as needed or desired.
