Lasting Bonds: Building Connected Families Through Positive Parenting

by Rebecca Eanes

Connection is the heart of a happy family, and yet so many of today's parenting practices
tend to pull us away from each other - to disconnect us from the ones
we love most. Most parenting books offer advice on how to get
children to behave, but none look at the full puzzle of parenthood
and how the many pieces fit together to shape a child and a family -
until now.

Lasting Bonds is unlike any other parenting book because it isn't just about
parenting, but it's about knowing and improving yourself, your
relationships, and learning to live in connection with your family
so as to give your children the healthiest start possible while
creating lasting bonds with your loved ones.

Written in a way that invites couples to work through it together, this book is
divided into five parts. Part one discusses the philosophy of
positive parenting and how connection attaches us at the heart. Part two involves doing the important self-work needed to become the parent and the person you want to be.
After all, the examples you set for our children shape them far more
than the words you tell them. Part three brings couples together to
unite toward one building the connected family that your
hearts desire. Part four will lead you down the path of building the
strong foundation needed and help put those plans into action.
Part five discusses why redefining discipline is essential in staying
connected with your children and offers positive solutions for what
many parents have deemed the most challenging issues parents face.
