Families Today
The average US household demographics indicate a radical
departure from what has traditionally been described as "Family."
Absent are meaningful relationships, parenting, responsibilities,
accountabilities, mentoring, grandparental involvement, significant
values etc.
A growing majority of households have just one 'parent. Key
influences in the lives of children are provided by music, videos,
television & the internet rather than from family - based counsel,
mentoring, parenting and grandparenting.
How do you protect, guide and develop a healthy family these
days? Interestingly enough, there are a variety of very good
resources from that same scourge, the internet! Below is a short
list of resources we value and use:
Family Life
Focus on the Family
National Center For Fathering
Council on Biblical Manhood and
Womanhood
