Every mother feels a profound sense of responsibility when it comes to parenting. The effects of parenting decisions have long-lasting implications on our children, but making those important decisions can be challenging. The Power of a Positive Mom offers seven time-tested principles that will help guide you in making the right choices when it comes to raising your child:

1. The power of encouragement
2.The power of prayer
3. The power of a good attitude
4. The power of strong relationships
5. The power of your example
6. The power of strong moral standards
7. The power of love and forgiveness

With a new chapter for single moms, sections on kids and technology, e-mom references, links to author videos, and more, both stay-at-home and working mothers will find practical and spiritual guidance and encouragement to help you become the mother you've always wanted to be.

Includes bibliographical references (p. 277-283).
