Book Description
What does it take to raise great kids? If you've read any books on parenting, conflicting opinions have probably left you feeling confused. Get tough! Show acceptance. Lay down the rules. Lighten up, already! There's got to be a balance--and there is. Joining their expertise with the wisdom of MOPS International (Mothers of Preschoolers), Drs. Henry Cloud and John Townsend help you provide both the care and acceptance that make grace real to your child, and the firmness and discipline that give direction. Avoiding the twin extremes of permissiveness and over-control, Drs. Cloud and Townsend show how you can help your child cultivate six necessary character traits: attachment, responsibility, reality, competence, morality, and worship/spiritual life. At last, here is an effective middle ground for raising up children who will handle life with maturity and wisdom. Raising Great Kids will help you equip your son or daughter to accept life's responsibilities, grow from its challenges, and freely and fully explore all that it has to offer.

Book Description
Raising decent, caring, and responsible children is the most complex and challenging job in every parent’s life—and an increasingly difficult one in today’s society. Here is the most authoritative book available on this crucial subject, a valuable and sensitive guide for parents who want their children to grow up with lifelong positive values. Based on fascinating research, this groundbreaking work by psychologist and educator Dr. Thomas Lickona describes the predictable stages of moral development from birth to adulthood. And it offers you down-to-earth advice and guidance for each stage: • Seven caring ways to discipline “terrible twos” • Why your preschooler “lies” and how to handle it • What to do about a four-year-old’s back talk • How to handle your seven-year-old’s endless negotiations about what’s “fair” • Why teens have trouble with peer pressure—and how to help them • How to talk to your child about drugs, drinking, and sex • How to help children of any age reason more clearly about what’s right and wrong PLUS . . . A list of more than one hundred children’s books that teach moral values, and much more. “An excellent book on a vastly neglected aspect of raising children.”—Dr. Fitzhugh Dodson, author How to Parent, How to Father “We have been waiting for a book like this for a long time—a readable work that translates a moral development into parents’ language and experience.”—Dolores Curran, author of Traits of a Healthy Family “Truly integrates a moral development theory into a consistent approach to childrearing. . . Word-of-mouth recommendations from parent to parent may lift it to the level of popularity once held by Dr. Spock’s book on child care.”—Moral Education Forum

Book Description
This book designed to give knowledge is written about Ethiopia, a nation with long time history known as a country of script and museum of history. For many intellectuals history of Ethiopia has become relevant to / cliche' or unique in African history. Materials covered in this book include transference of Ethiopian heritage to young generation, Sheba's and Ark's history, Amharic language and alphabet, information for tourists, and prayer for Ethio-econo-socio-political development. Since faith has power, life for a Christian is easy because God says in Luke 11:9-10: "Ask and it shall be given to you." In the same token if Ethiopians pray according to John 15:16 and John 16:23-24 in the name of Jesus, to believe in the Cross and to unify the country nothing will prevent to transform their lives and to get answer for their prayer. I, Molla born and raised in Ethiopia/Wollo/ Woldia having a Bachelor's degree in history like to make research in my spare time. Whenever; I write I produce original works. I have submitted my writings in 1990, 1991 and 1994 to Institute of Ethiopian Studies, major research institute of Ethiopia. In those days my writings were about mighty conquerors. After I came to America I accepted Jesus as my personal Savior in 1995. Ever since I accepted Jesus, hungry for the Word of God, I jump for the glory of the Lord whenever; worship starts. As a result miracles in my life continue to flow. Now I am a nurse. Before six years prophesy came to me through Pastor Seifu Kebede (Divine Mission Ministry) that I would be author of books. These days I start to write books to show the greatness of God and the weakness of man.
