CHILDREN AND PARENTS
Wisdom and Guidance for Parents

One of the most serious threats to the relationship between parents and their children at this age in the more so-called “developed” countries of the world is permissiveness. It is unfortunately all to common in our day. We all need limits; we all need to learn self-discipline. To escape the neurosis caused by a failure to accept limitations and the necessary imposition of reasonable rules, young people are often prone to temper tantrums and violent or aggressive conduct under the excuse that “they need their freedom,” whereas what they are really seeking is “the right to do whatever they please.” In this work Sheen masterfully addresses ever conceivable issue that parents can expect to confront in their relationships with their children as they grow into adulthood and helps them to approach these with love and deliberation.

About the Author: Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen (1895-1979) is no stranger to Catholics throughout the world who have read his books, watched him on television or heard his recorded messages on tape, radio or CD. His cause for canonization took another step forward at a Mass in the Cathedral of Peoria, Illinois on February 3, 2008 when the sealed documents needed for its introduction were sent to the Congregation for the Causes of Saints in Rome and his case was formally opened. Among his many books, ST PAULS is proud to have published: Divine Romance, Eternal Galilean, Guide to Contentment, Old Errors and New Labels, Prodigal World, Rock Plunged into Eternity, Seven Last Words, Seven Capital Sins, Those Mysterious Priests, Thoughts for Daily Living, Way to Inner Peace, Way to Happiness, Way of the Cross, Walk with God and You.
