What strategies are most effective for raising kids with good character?
We get that question a lot here at Focus on the Family. Our answer is that there is no one size fits all, but one thing is required: intentionality. Setting our families on “auto pilot” and hoping everything turns out okay is not a fruitful parenting approach.
Every Christian parent wants happy and healthy kids who love the Lord and who have a good relationship with their mom and dad. How do we do that?
Ultimately, our children become who we are. Consciously and subconsciously, we model for our kids 24/7 what living as a mature adult is supposed to look like. Our goal as Christian parents is to help our kids become who God made them to be.
On Focus on the Family with Jim Daly, I’m talking with Dr. Josh and Christi Straub about ways for you feel more effective as a mom or dad and raise happy and healthy children.
We discussed:
Mom and dad, you play a critical role in the growth and development of your children. Learn effective strategies for raising kids with good character on your local radio station, online, on Apple Podcasts, or take us with you on our free phone app.
Dr. Josh and Christi Straub are speakers, authors, and marriage and leadership coaches. Together, they lead Famous at Home, where they equip leaders, organizations, military families and churches in emotional intelligence and family wellness.
We’ve also got a free parenting assessment for you at our website. It will quickly give you an overview of how your family is doing in several key areas. It also offers suggestions for improving the relationships in your home.
