HE IS NOT LEFT BEHIND...He is with me! - Book Review




HE IS NOT LEFT BEHIND...He is with me! ( Preparing for Legacy. Vol. 1) by Brenda A. Jenkins & Dr. Loretta J. Martin

This is a unique book that challenges parents to become involved in their children's lives by becoming a lighthouse for them. In so doing, the children learn how to better navigate their lives through the complexities of today's world.

Building on Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, the reader is asked to think of parenting in a pyramid concept. The bottom tier forms the solid foundation, the second tier prepares the child for solid bonding, the third tier prepares your child for leaving the next and the fourth tier represents your goal of producing a legacy of healthy offspring through your child.

The authors present a different approach to parenting. One that all parents can take golden nuggets from to help them become involved parents and rise to the challenge of being leaders their children can learn from and hopefully become a well adjusted, successful person in their family and the world.
