Good kids aren't just a matter of luck.Bad kids aren't, either.Pastor Michael Brock has counseled families for decades and raised five children of his own. Over the years, he's found that parents with child trouble usually make the same handful of mistakes. These errors shape the first years of a child's life-and they have devastating consequences as the child gets older.

The good news is there are practical, biblical ways to avoid them.

This book diagnoses the eight most common failures of parents and offers simple suggestions for how to raise a healthy family, by God's grace.
