hy should I go to University? The way I see it, college isn't shaping the next generation into productive adults and leaders, and it doesn't help individual students achieve their personal goals. Why bury yourself in debt just because everyone else expects you to pursue "higher education"? Why waste several years of your life earning a worthless piece of paper only to end up working the same job alongside your high-school graduate friends? It just doesn't make sense.

We’re going to tackle a fairly controversial subject as we help a family better understand tomboyish tendencies and transgenderism. There are really good parenting tips in general in what we’re about to say.

It's not every day that you see Dad doing the school run, after-school activities, homework, and preparing dinner, but in some cases, this is the role Dads are finding themselves in.

So many marriages are being affected by porn addiction, and a lot of them end in divorce. The reason for this is that the road to recovery can be arduous and the spouse of the addict loses hope in having a normal relationship ever again. We’ll explore some of the steps that can be taken to overcome the addiction and to move forward with a recommitted marriage relationship.

In modern society, it has become increasingly common for both moms and dads to work outside of the home, and it’s overwhelmingly evident that busyness has become the norm for so many families. The words: ‘Oh, we’ve just been so busy!’ are almost everybody’s mantra. And with parents adopting this kind of lifestyle it’s often the Grandparents that get assigned the duties of fetching and carrying and taking care of the children. This arrangement can be extremely helpful for the family, but not when the Grandparents feel as though they’re being taken advantage of, or are enabling an over-busy lifestyle.

If you’re a parent of school-going children you may look back on the potty training years and breathe a sigh of relief, but if you’re in that phase of life with your child right now, you possibly feel like this mountain is insurmountable. Well, the good news is that you don’t often see school-going children wearing nappies because eventually, each child learns to use the toilet.

The subject of discipline is a hot topic among most parents, and it’s an area where parents can feel overwhelmed and underqualified. What a lot of Moms and Dads don’t realize is that effective discipline takes effort and follow-through, and when there’s inconsistency, children end up feeling unsure of their boundaries.

Do you have any encouragement for moms who are employed outside the home? I'm aware that Focus on the Family spends a lot of time affirming stay-at-home moms in their role, but I'm wondering if you can offer any support to those of us who have to leave home every day simply in order to help pay the bills.

A relationship that ends because of unfaithfulness is always a serious blow, but when there are children involved it makes the situation so much more difficult and devastating.

When it comes to disciplining children, parents need to have a clear-cut understanding of the appropriate methods and purposes of discipline. To discipline is to teach, and that is why harsh reactions to bad behavior are never healthy, although it can be so easy to fall into that trap when a child is defiantly disobedient.
