Well researched and clearly presented

Dr Dobson has spent 3 years researching and writing this book. There is a wealth of information and guidance to help us guide our girls through a tumultuous society. He describes a girl's transformation through all phases of life. I am very thankful for the wise guidance Dr. Dobson provides in this book. I will be reading it over and over again.

Game changer

Living in such a fast paced society the values, standards and moral foundations that this book addresses still needs to be applied. Thank you a thousand times, Dr. Dobson.

it's an investment in time but well worth it

I found the audio book helpful - full of anecdotal as well as scientific information, encouragement, and suggestions. I'm grateful that it is unabashedly and unapologetically Christian at its core and foundations. It does take time and I recommend it to any parent who needs some guidance and education. There are no quick and fast answers or emergency strategies - at least I would not suggest it - within its pages. But sometimes all you need is reassurance and hope and you can find both in this book.

Must read for parents!!!

I am a pediatric nurse practitioner and have read a plethora of parenting books. This book exceeds any book I’ve read by far. It is grounded in Christian beliefs which I believe is the most important aspect in raising children. Thanks Dr. Dobson for this amazing resource!
