Most books aimed at parents focus on the development of children. Yet, good parenting requires the healthy and ongoing personal development of parents along with an adult sense of fulfillment. Growing Up with Your Children: 7 Turning Points in the Lives of Parents offers insight into the turning points that parents go through in the process of their own personal development in the context of family life. By combining engaging short stories from the everyday lives of families with philosophical wisdom passed down from the best thinkers throughout history, Carey offers unique perspectives on overcoming the stubborn obstacles parents face in achieving personal growth. In working through these seven turning points, parents can effectively guide their children while finding joy and fulfillment in their own lives.
Seamus Carey, Ph.D., is chair of the Philosophy Department at Manhattan College and the author of The Faithful Parent: Discovering the Spirit of Purposeful Parenting and The Whole Child: Restoring Wonder to the Art of Parenting. He has published several journal articles and has appeared on several radio programs. He frequently lectures to colleges and parent groups.
