Raising a Child With Soul: : How Time-Tested Jewish Wisdom Can Shape Your Child’s Character, by Slovie Jungreis Wolff is an excellent book in which parents can garner ideas on how to raise their child with wisdom from the Torah.
It isn’t your “average” parenting book, but rather one filled with Torah wisdom and stories of insight that can help parents get through their minutes, hours and days, during the moments of the frustrations of parenthood.
Raising a Child With Soul will help you learn how to discipline your child with love, with an ethical and moral compass. It describes how to instill a sense of self-esteem in your child, and how to handle situations such as sibling jealousy, and how to effectively evoke humbleness and gratefulness, with a sense of confidence in your child. The book demonstrates modes of childhood behavior, and the applicable consequences that pertain to the choices your child might make.
Raising a Child with Soul, by Slovie Jungreis Wolff, is written in an easy to understand format, for parents of all ages. It is written with a soulful perspective, and What more could one parent-to-be, new-parent, or parent of a child of any age ask for! It is an amazingly “soul-full” book, filled with content any parent will benefit from.
The pages illuminate choices and consequences, and discipline that is pertinent to the actions, within an environment of Jewish principles that are straight from the Torah. Raising a Child With Soul belongs in every household, whether it is a Jewish home, or otherwise. I highly recommend it to all parents.
I will be sending this book to my daughter, the mother of my 20-month old granddaughter, who is expecting another child at the end of June.
