This powerful book offers practical tools to show parents how to love their children, fight today’s overindulging tendencies, and coach their children to happy, healthy independence. Parents often find themselves in the predicament of having too much to do, and not enough time to spend with their children. To ease their guilt, they often overindulge, giving children too many material things and too much freedom. It is time to stem the tide of overindulgence and make a positive, powerful difference in the lives of the children we love!
This course is based on the book, Overindulged Children: A Parent’s Guide to Mentoring created by James A. Fogarty, Ed.D.
