Parenting -

Best of the Net...

"Raising Godly Tomatoes" -- several years ago, a mother started a website for her children, giving them bits of advice on parenting so they would know how to do it when they were grown.  Now we can all benefit from her wisdom!  I am pleased to recommend this site!

Other Sites We Love to Recommend:

• Growing Families International - This organization was so helpful us when we were new parents.  They specialize in classes which will teach you to parent your children using biblical principles. You can also search their archives for articles of interest to you.
• Mom's Notes -- products for parenting
• Doorposts - This company offers the finest materials I know of for helping parents be consistent when teaching their children to obey.  Much of their resources were more convicting for me  than they were for my kids!
• No Greater Joy is a website by the Pearls, authors of the helpful book To Train Up a Child.
• Heritage Builders is a new branch of Focus on the Family.  Their purpose is to help parents pass their faith on to their children.  
• John Rosemond's Affirmative Parenting -- common sense advice for many parenting questions.
