MAITLAND, FL— The new book by Joey and Carla
Link, Taming the Lecture Bug and Getting Your Kids to Think, ($13.99,
paperback, 9781498435857; $6.99, e-book, 9781498435864) is timely and relevant
to today’s familial issues. Their approach to parenting includes less lecturing
and more teaching—empowering both young and adult children to make godly and
morally right decisions. The point is that if kids are making better choices,
parents will have no need to lecture.
“Lectures and reminders don't work. Obedience training, which leads to being responsible, does,” state the authors. “Building a relationship of trust with your kids by getting them to take ownership of their responsibilities brings harmony to the home.”
Joey Link is the director of a Christian ministry to families. He has served as a youth and family pastor for many years. Carla Link's degree is in social work. They are also the authors of the book "Why Can't I Get My Kids to Behave?" and are frequent speakers at parenting conferences and seminars.
