 All
parents want to raise well-behaved children
with whom they can enjoy living.
Unfortunately, for many the arduous task of
parenting is a constant battle for
control—not just of their children’s
misbehavior but also of their own parental
emotions. Too often the tantrums thrown by
unruly kids are eclipsed by the larger
tantrums of their angry moms and dads.
Clearly, parenting demands a game plan. In
their new book, 1-2-3 Magic for
Christian Parents: Effective Discipline for
Children 2-12, author, pastor and
National Certified Counselor Chris Webb
teams up with experienced psychologist and
author Dr. Tom Phelan. They offer families
three simple steps that will empower
parents, restore order to any household and
pave the way for parents to enjoy their
children again.
The previous editions of the 1-2-3 Magic
book have sold over a million copies and
have elicited praise from parents, teachers
and counselors all over the country. As a
father of three and a counselor, Chris Webb
was impressed by the inherently biblical
principles set forth in the book and began
using it with his own children. “I couldn’t
believe how quickly the atmosphere in my
house began to change,” Chris recalls.
“Before I discovered the 1-2-3 method, I
often lost my temper with my kids, and I
felt guilty every time that happened. Now I
can control my emotions, and that has made
all the difference.” Chris began
recommending the 1-2-3 method in his
counseling sessions and at parenting
conferences. He was amazed to discover that
virtually none of the Christians he met had
ever heard of this miraculous approach. He
has coauthored this new version for the
express purpose of putting this invaluable
tool into the hands of Christian families.
1-2-3 Magic for Christian Parents
is full of scripture references that
support the biblical basis for a technique
so remarkably simple and effective that
parents can begin using it immediately with
astounding results. The book teaches
effective parenting in three straightforward
steps:
1. Controlling obnoxious behavior
2. Encouraging good behavior
3. Strengthening your relationships with
your children
Parents learn the two most important rules
they need to follow while disciplining young
kids: No Talking and No Emotion. The book
also provides specific instructions for
dealing with the most common parenting
landmines: tantrums, bedtime issues,
nighttime waking, sibling rivalry, homework,
misbehavior in public and the six kinds of
testing and manipulation. Additionally, this
new version includes suggestions for parents
who want to pass down their faith, teach
their children about God and manage
misbehavior at church. 1-2-3 Magic for
Christian Parents is an essential
resource for any Christian parent or
children’s minister who wants to see happy,
well-behaved parents enjoying happy,
well-behaved children.
