Hello everyone, welcome to our monthly book review. The review for August is, The 5 Love Languages of Children by Gary Chapman and Ross Campbell.
Description
You love your child, but does your child feel loved?
Every child has a unique way of feeling loved. When you discover your child's love language - and how to speak it - you can build a solid foundation for your child to trust you and flourish as he or she grows.
In this audiobook for parents, teachers, single parents, and more, Drs. Gary Chapman and Ross Campbell offer practical advice for how to:
Discover and speak your child's love language - in dozens of ways!
Use the love languages to help your child learn best
Discipline and correct more lovingly and effectively
I’ve read the main book, The 5 Love Languages and as a parent and child and youth worker, I was curious as to what this edition would offer.
I listened to the audio book, which lasts for about 7 hours. It contains an extensive amount of practical information, which will absolutely enhance your relationship with your child and weaved into all of this, is faith in God.
This is not a one listen does the job book. As I have read the main book, I already understood the basic concepts, but nevertheless, there are so many great tips, that this book will need to be read or listened to several times.
After listening to the book, I did as the author challenged one parent, I asked my adult children if they truly felt loved by me. Over the years I have learned to relate to them in the love languages they need. My heart was truly touched, as once again, they confirmed that yes, they did truly feel loved by me and were able to give me concrete examples, which aligned with their love languages.
This book is a must read for anyone that comes into contact with children in their families, workplace or anywhere else.
I listened to, The 5 Love Languages of Children, on audible.com.
Thank you for reading this review. Until next time, God’s peace be with you.
