Being a parent is challenging enough. Being a single parent can seem downright impossible―until now. Drawing on material from his successful Single Parenting That Works curriculum guide and video series, America's favorite parenting expert, Dr. Kevin Leman, brings help and hope to the legions of single parents struggling to raise happy, healthy, well-adjusted children in a loving, caring and biblically grounded way. Using his trademark quirky, no-nonsense approach, Dr. Leman shows parents how to build healthy, mature relationships with their former spouses, how to develop their children's self-esteem, and how to discipline and relate to their kids in accordance with their unique God-given personalities.

Features:
  • Building stability for your children by getting your own life in order.
  • How forgiveness opens the door to healthy relationships
  • Learning to deal with your “ex” with an olive branch rather than a hammer
  • Dating and remarriage
  • Helping your child thrive in a single parent home

1.0 out of 5 stars Terrible Advice
Reviewed in the United States on February 20, 2013

I write this review with the caveat that I bought this book as a gift for someone who requested it; I am quite clearly not the target audience. That said...This book carries a full payload of right-wing indoctration targeting impressionable single mothers. This author obviously read A Handmaiden's Tale and thought it was a novel about utopia. Find a book by someone who actually respects women, who has been single for any appreciable amount of time, and who can grok that this isn't 1950 anymore. There a are a few tidbits of useful information scattered throughout, but they are set against a wholey unapallatable backdrop.

Okay, I first got this book from my local library, and I find the information in it so helpful. I just had to have a copy for myself. Plus I didn't want to lose all of the notes and highlights I had made. This information helps those single parents that really trying their best in rasing a good child, but also one that has morals and values in God. Good Luck and God Bless.
