When I first started listening to the Audiobook, I quickly realized that I needed both the audio version and the hardback. The content presented in this book is simply too important to rely on just one format. As a mother, I've been facing challenges with my teenage son, and all I want is for him to fulfill his potential in accordance with God's plan for him. It felt like every day was turning into a battle, but now I understand where I've been coming up short. Armed with this newfound knowledge, I can now strive to be the mother that my son truly deserves. This book has equipped me with valuable tools that will not only help him succeed but will also enable us to have a mother-son relationship that brings us both joy. I feel empowered and supported by the information presented in this book. I know that I can tackle this challenge, and I am determined to be the best mother I can be for my son, with the guidance of Christ. I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for providing these much-needed materials.
I've gained a ton of knowledge on showing respect to my son and husband, both when they deserve it and when they don't. Make sure you don't skip any of the books in this incredible love and respect series by this author. It's absolutely invaluable.
The author, who identifies as both a pastor and a holder of a Ph.D. in child and family ecology, makes this clear early on in the book.
As someone who has listened to various Christian authors without any major issues, I must say that this particular book took a quick dive into parenting with respect, relying heavily on numerous Bible verses to support its ideas.
Interestingly, the book's description fails to mention anything about its biblical or godly approach, instead highlighting four other aspects for listeners to discover.
By the time I reached the third chapter, I was still eagerly awaiting more insights into psychology, practical examples, or alternative responses, but they were few and far between.
Considering the author's perspective and the biblical references throughout, the book felt more like a passionate sermon or a stern lecture rather than a source of practical guidance. After investing almost two hours, I found there was very little useful information to be found.
Feeling dissatisfied and believing that the book's description was misleading, I requested a refund and will be exploring other options instead.
After just 48 hours, my connection with my 10-year-old boy has taken a significant turn. Despite already sharing a strong bond, implementing the principles of respect has resulted in more frequent conversations between us. I'm eagerly anticipating how this will further enhance our relationship!
I had to take my time going through this audiobook because it was packed with so many eye-opening revelations that required some deep reflection and putting into practice before moving on to the next chapters. A must-have guide for all moms raising boys!
Wow, I couldn't believe how much my life changed for the better after reading 'Mother and Son: The Respect Effect'. It's like a divine intervention! I never thought that something as simple as choosing the right words could have such a profound impact. Now, I find myself pausing and reflecting before every conversation I have. This book has truly struck a chord with me, and I can't help but love it. I enthusiastically recommend it to all the moms out there, as well as those who are soon-to-be mothers.
This book is incredibly discriminatory. I managed to make it halfway through, hoping it would improve, but unfortunately, it remained disgustingly repulsive.
I made it to chapter 7 and gave it my best shot. There were too many "nature rules" and not enough discussion based on research for my liking. I suggest saving both your money and your time. The main point is that it emphasizes the importance of speaking with respect to all boys to avoid offending their sense of masculinity. That's pretty much it.
If you've got boys, regardless of their age, you absolutely need to give this a read! It's seriously amazing. It's already had such a positive impact on my connection with my 5-year-old son. It's packed with valuable insights and useful tips that genuinely make a difference. Seriously, get your hands on this book, it's a game-changer!
If you're looking for guidance in navigating the complexities of the mother and son dynamic, this book is a fantastic resource! The narration is also top-notch, adding another layer of enjoyment to the experience.
