Written for every mom who helps too much with homework just to impress the teacher and every dad who takes credit for his daughter&;s soccer success, Trophy Child will give parents the encouragement they need to nurture their kids into who God created them to be.

Trophy Child will help modern Christian parents create a home where children find success in following their heavenly Father&;s leading for them&;and readers know the joy of seeing their children embrace their full potential as children of God.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Do you cringe when your kids fight in public because it makes you look bad? Do you find yourself helping too much with homework because you want the teacher to be impressed? Do you secretly take credit for your child s dance recital, soccer win, or spelling bee crown? You might be in danger of vanity parenting.
Vanity parenting happens when our culture s obsession with performance leads us to form expectations for our kids based on the world s standards, not on the Bible. As a result, our children try to meet our emotional needs instead of growing into the calling God has for them.
Trophy Child will help you create a home where your children find success in following their heavenly Father s leading for them and you know the joy of seeing your children embrace their full potential as children of God.
