Journey of a Strong-Willed Child - Book Review
This was a great book for me personally to read. I have a strong-willed child. I wonder how many of you out there do as well? Whether you have one or not, it is probably safe to say you have been in contact with one. They are all around us. We need to know how to interact effectively with the strong-willed.
This book gives great insight into the mind and thinking pattern of the strong-willed child. It is unique in its presentation because the author has experienced life with a strong-willed child the whole way through. She uses practical examples all through different stages of life along with tips that a parent can use. Also, another interesting addition is the strong-willed child referenced but now grown adds his input as well. He can confirm what he was actually thinking and what was going on in his mind. This was extremely helpful to me because I just want to get into my child's head and figure out why she makes things so very hard. Aaron helps us to understand.
One more thing I loved about this book was that not only did mom and son add input but it was a family project. The father also added his input which is so important on this journey of raising children. He was an active force in the child-rearing as well and he shared his input into that as well. It is a wonderful family effort and a great read for anyone desiring to understand the strong-willed child.

Thank you for the prayer today. The kids are all doing much better and I didn't get sick!
