About this audiobook
Parenting isn't rocket science, it's just brain surgery. And Dr. Joshua Straub has good news for you: You can do it! You don't need to do all the “right” things as a parent. Both science and the Bible show us that the most important thing we can provide for our kids is a place of emotional safety. In other words, the posturefrom which we parent matters infinitely more than the techniques of parenting. Emotional safety-more than any other factor-is scientifically linked to raising kids who live, love, and lead well. Learn how to use emotional safety as a foundation from which you parent-and make a cultural impact that could change the world! In Safe House, Dr. Straub draws from his extensive research and personal experience to help you: - Foster healthy identity and social development in children of any age - Win the war without getting overwhelmed in the daily battles - Discipline in a way that builds relationship - Understand how the culture is affecting your child and what you can do about it - Cultivate responsible, self-regulating behavior in your kids- Establish an unshakeable sense of faith, morality, and values in your home- Feel more confident and peaceful as a parent- Find a greater perspective on parenting than what you might see on a daily basis
