The New Dare To Discipline By Dr. James Dobey

The New Dare to Discipline, book by Dr. James Dobson provides a practical and insightful resource guide for parents and counselors. As a parent, he offers advice on how to efficiently raise boys and girls from a personal and professional perspective. He teaches parents how to understand their children as well as how to handle everyday challenges.

I finally gave up, he eventually stopped after I left him alone, and I never questioned his crying again. For children not to become spoiled they must be taught what is right from wrong and there must be discipline. When parents discipline their children, they are preparing them to make the right choices in life. In the Bible, it says, “Whoever spares the rod hates their children, but the one who loves their children is careful to discipline them” (Proverbs 13:24
