Moving, motivating must read for Moms AND Dads! December 7, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
My husband and I have been in student ministry for almost two decades and I have yet to find a book for parents of girls that is so honest, so straightforwardly truthful and so disturbing (in a good, motivating, don't-you-dare-ignore -this-message kind of way!) We minster to girls from across the spectrum spiritually and socio-economically and this book bears out what we have been witnessing. I cannot wait for the mother daughter book study that is supposed to be coming out in the spring. I'm already putting together a group of moms and daughters to go through it. Thanks Vicki!
I wished my mother had read this book when I was a young girl! November 29, 2008

Reading this book has not only opened my eyes to the huge lies that society is forcing down our throats; but it has helped me to realize that I have been involved in teaching them to my own daughter! Mostly because I, too, have believed many of these lies; however, now that I see the truth, I am thankful that my own daughters are young enough that I can train them up in the ways of the Lord and teach them to save themselves--physically and emotionally--for a man who deserves them!
I would recommend this book to anyone with daughters and even to any female at all; undoubtedly, all females are helping to shape the lives of young girls around them. Whether they be neighbors, church members, neices or friend's daughters, this book is a clear, concise explanation of what has happened to society over the years, and further--how we can improve it!
Essential for parents of young girls November 4, 2008
7 out of 8 found this review helpful
This book is the perfect tool for parenting young girls. It is a common sense approach to helping our girls navigate through the rough waters of growing up and teaching them not to grow up too soon. Our children are constantly bombarded with lies from our culture and this Christian based book helps parents take control of teaching our girls to grow up in a Godly way. Much research was done for this book and the statistics she quotes will make you realize how culture has fooled our girls into believing and doing unthinkable things at such young ages. As in all of Vicki Courtney's books, you will find direction, support and comfort in parenting the right way, not the worldly way. Read this book and read it soon... no parent who takes a sincere interest in raising Godly women will want to parent one minute without it.
