Keeping
Your Kids Sexually Pure
By LaVerne Tolbert, Ph.D.
From the
Publisher: Research demonstrates that teaching abstinence works!
In survey after survey, students say that abstinence is what they
want to learn. Self-control, self-respect, delayed gratification,
planning for the future, and building healthy friendships are values
that are essential for every aspect of successful living -- not
just in delay of sexual activity. "My daughter had one choice. Either
she was going down the aisle a virgin, or she was going down the
aisle in a coffin," says the author in pure hyperbole. Her point
is this: Kids need clear sexual boundaries. The media, the classroom,
and other voices send conflicting messages to our teenagers. Society
teaches youth how to say no to drugs and alcohol, but not to sex.
Parents, pastors, teachers, and youth workers must speak the same
message: Sexual activity outside of marriage is unacceptable!

Restoring
the Teenage Soul: Nurturing Sound Hearts and Minds in a Confused
Culture
By Margaret J. Meeker, M.D.
Will help you
understand how "normal" teens get into trouble, why some
teens are depressed and suicidal and why many teens look for love
in the wrong places. Dr. Meeker contends that the fundamental needs
of teens are not being met, which results in their trying to find
their own way in an unfriendly culture. Yet all is not lost, if
adults are willing to be there. Uplifting, frank, encouraging and
conversational, this book will inspire any adult to get involved.

Saving
Childhood: How to Protect Your Children from the National Assault
on Innocence
By
Michael Medved and Diane Medved, Ph.D.
From the
Publisher: Saving Childhood offers parents and grandparents
practical strategies to cope with a society that seems perversely
determined to frighten and corrupt its young. Cultural critic and
popular radio host Michael Medved and his wife, psychologist Diane
Medved, argue that in a mistaken effort to curb problems plaguing
its youth, our culture has changed from protecting childhood as
a precious time of growth to hammering even the smallest youngsters
with a grim, harsh, and menacing view of the world. The Medveds
systematically present unassailable scientific evidence, moving
anecdotes, and personal experiences of raising their three young
children to explain the attack from four primary directions—media,
schools, peers, and even well-intentioned parents themselves.
