Josh Hoopes Gives Out Some Helpful Information For Parents With His New Book: “West Ridge Academy’s Ten Parenting Dilemma Busters”
Thursday, May 17th, 2012Being a parent is no laughing matter. Day in and day out, you have to be there for your kids and the entire family. It requires whole-hearted dedication, with no days off as it is virtually a 24/7, 365 days a year full-time job.
However, what do you do when you get overwhelmed by all sorts of problems such as disciplining your teenagers, who usually become outspoken and rebellious as they enter this early adulthood phase, and you can’t find anyone to talk to? Where can you cast your net to get parcels of inspiration and information during such unavoidable situations? Aside from praying, you may also decide to take a breather, relax for a while, and read a nice parenting book that can provide you with relevant information and sources of inspiration about handling your kids, as well as learning how to maintain and nurture a strong and loving family atmosphere.
And one of the more impressive and helpful books which we have read recently that discusses this topic is the new book by Josh Hoopes entitled “West Ridge Academy’s Ten Parenting Dilemma Busters”. Unlike other books on parenting which usually presents vague generalized statements packaged as parenting principles, you can’t really feel the connection that they might as well be talking about some generic family straight out of a Hollywood script. Or other books which give you overly-detailed and curiously specific solutions to all manners of family problems imaginable, that it almost makes you feel like you are reading a voluminous operation manual to some new machinery; which can actually be threatening to kids that they would most probably react by protesting against such attempts to subvert their intelligence and creative impulses with these various restrictions.
Josh Hoopes’ “West Ridge Academy’s Ten Parenting Dilemma Busters” offers practical and sound parenting principles based upon inherent human values and characteristics, which are then used as a backdrop in solving some of the most common challenges faced by many of today’s families from all over. It pays homage back to the basics of parenting by offering timeless truths and simple solutions that you will certainly agree, “The best things in life, indeed are free!”
It is basically composed of ten chapters, each of which discusses one valuable tidbit of parenting tip after another. Chapter 1 discusses the importance of spending time and playing together for the family. Chapter 2 offers tips for parents on how to remain calm and collected but staying firm at the same time when disciplining their kids. Chapter 3 talks about how you can manage to make time for your family even if you are busy. Chapter 4 reiterates the importance of a proper and balanced diet for the development of your children. Chapter 5 offers some suggestions for parents to help their child who may be overly shy, as this can be a socially-paralyzing impediment if not treated in time. Chapter 6 talks about ways to assist your child if he happens to be falling behind in school. Chapter 7 is a fresh take on the positive effects of good movies for your kids. Chapter 8 reiterates the value of connecting with your teen at all times. Chapter 9 gives out advices on how you can possibly rescue your teen who may be struggling with some substance abuse problems. Finally, chapter 10 states that it’s never too early to teach your kids about financial literacy.
Given such a wide array of useful and informative topics formulated to help parents address their most disconcerting parenting problems, Josh Hoopes has definitely delivered a timeless piece of literature which is bound to become the manifesto for effective parenting by parents everywhere.
