As parents we are to give our children the tools they need to be productive adults. This includes how to hand conflicts in a biblical manner. Because our children are home all day, we have more opportunities for family conflict and thus more opportunities to teach the proper ways to resolve them.
Peacemaking for Families gives you the tools to solve conflicts in your family, whether they are between you and your spouse, you and your children, or between siblings. The book explains the seven A's of confession, four promises of forgiveness, how to listen, how to negotiate, what to do when the other party is in denial, when to get outside help and much more. It has special sections on dealing with children or with your spouse.
Peacemaking for Families will make a difference in how my family handles disagreements. I also plan on purchasing their curriculum especially for children called The Young Peacemaker, which has a teacher's manual and a set of workbooks for children to complete. These tools will change how we handle conflict.
