"How many times do I have to tell you . . . ?"As parents, we've all faced times where our emotions react and overreact to a child's behavior. There are good days and bad days--moments we're proud of and moments we'd like to try again. In Signals, teacher Cherilyn Orr introduces the Stoplight Approach, a framework that integrates brain science and the Bible to give parents and their children simple, practical tools to make clear-headed decisions during the often chaotic episodes of family life.Like a traffic light sending signals to drivers, the human brain directs its own sort of traffic, guiding our emotions and behaviors and sending signals to those around us. Signals teaches parents how to understand and respond to a child's actions in a way that meets their need for discipline, love, and safety, while preserving a loving, connected relationship.

Emulating the format of Raising a Modern-Day Princess, authors Doreen Hanna and Karen Whiting seek to help parents and grandparents cultivate strong relationships and encourage the spiritual formation in their daughters using examples, Bible teaching on the fruit of the Spirit, and a variety of creative activities that are based on Galatians 5:22-23, the fruit of the Spirit (love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control).By implementing the ideas in this book, mothers (as well as fathers) will be equipped to understand and guide their daughters through each step of becoming His "e;princess."e; This will include perceiving a daughter's unique personality and gifts, refining her character through training and discipline, and modeling the attributes of a daughter of the King.This book is a follow-up to both Raising a Modern-Day Knight (by Robert Lewis) and Raising a Modern-Day Princess by Pam Farrel and Doreen Hanna.
