Product Description
"""What children are taught to respect, they value; the more they value people, ideas, and even things, the more meaningful their lives become. Raising Respectful Children in a Disrespectful World is the book every parent should read to ensure that their children will become blessings to the world."" Dr. Laura Schlessinger -- Internationally Syndicated Talk-Show Host; Author, Bad Childhood--Good Life ""Jill Rigby tells us in practical words what we all need to not only hear but do. This book should be required reading for all parents.""

With courage and conviction, Jill Rigby debunks many of the conventional beliefs in child rearing, replacing them with the wisdom of experience."" Dr. Kevin Leman -- Author, Making Children Mind without Losing Yours ""If you're concerned about the negative effect popular culture is having on America's children, and you want to know what you can do to prevent your child from falling under its sway, then you need to read this book and you need to do what Jill Rigby says, because she's right -- and that's all there is to it."" John Rosemond -- Author, Family Building: The Five Fundamentals of Effective Parenting ""In a world where permissive misbehavior is more the rule than the exception. . . at a time when so many parents have opted out, Jill Rigby comes along with a marvelous ray of hope for all who have accepted the responsibility of guiding those who will lead the next generation.""

I just started reading the book. It gives good advice, but it is very much common sence. So far I am already doing everything they are suggesting. I am still hoping to get some new ideas from the book. I think the types of parents who need this book probably won't be reading it.
 Wonderful! June 15, 2008

This is a wonderful and informative book. It opened my eyes to some things that I'm doing that could actually not benefit my children in the future. It's an eye-opener and inspiring for sure.
Thank you for such a well written book!

I loved this book! I agree with the reviewer who said that Rigby's chapter about self-esteem versus self-respect was worth the price of the book. It's something I never thought of before. In fact, the entire book made me think, pray, and reconsider some of the ways I'd been parenting (or non-parenting). The author is a Christian, and she's not afraid to let her faith inform her message. So, yes, she might offend people. But I admire her for her strong faith and her practical, personal and politically incorrect(!) advice.
Must have for all parents! April 7, 2008

This book is an excellent source of wisdom as to how to combat societies view of entitlement. It puts forth valid agruments for building self-efficacy in your child and how just worrying about their self esteem is doing more harm than good. I strongly recommend it to parents of children of all ages. But the younger you start the better!

This book hits the nail right on the head. We as a society have strayed from core values that this country was founded upon. Ms. Rigby encourages us to raise our children with self discipline and self respect. Following the principles in this book will raise our children to be responsible adults.
