Modern Parents, Vintage Values: Instilling Character in Today's Kids

Melissa Trevathan and Sissy Goff hear these types of questions from parents on a daily basis. Today, more than ever before, we live in a culture that is at war against our parenting. Between the Internet, the media, the sense of entitlement that kids are living with, the disrespect... it is almost too much. And yet, Melissa and Sissy believe we can still raise children who value, well, values.

In Modern Parents, Vintage Values they provide a clear and possible path back to cultivating children who have a sense of character and groundless. Guiding parents to understand the specific issues facing kids today, they ultimately focus in on nine values that are foundational for the character development of children: kindness, integrity, manners, compassion, forgiveness, responsibility, gratitude, patience, and confidence.

Offering practical advice for instilling these traits in both children and adolescents, Modern Parents, Vintage Values offers parents timeless truths that can break through the chaos of today's culture and instill character in today's kids.
