5 Conversations You Must Have With Your Daughter by Vicki Courtney
About The Book:
From the cradle to college, tell your daughters the truth about life before they believe the culture’s lies. For mothers with girls newborn to eighteen, Five Conversations You Must Have with Your Daughter is simply a must-have book. Youth culture commentator Vicki Courtney helps moms pinpoint and prepare the discussions that should be ongoing in their daughters' formative years. To fully address the dynamic social and spiritual issues and influencers at hand, several chapters are written for each of the conversations, which are:
1. You are more than the sum of your parts
2. Don’t be in such a hurry to grow up
3. Sex is great and worth the wait
4. It’s OK to dream about marriage and motherhood
5. Girls gone wild are a dime a dozen - dare to be virtuous
My Thoughts:
I don't have a daughter, but I imagine in these times it would be hard to raise one! I have four nieces though, and I have that mama bear feeling towards them and want to protect them. So this book was very insightful, and I have passed it along to my brother and my sisters who are the parents of girls. The book is set up so the parent can read a little at a time and not get inundated with a ton of advice and information and get overwhelmed. I like the quotes in the books, and some of the personal stories. This is an excellent read for parents of girls!
