Book Review: 5 Conversations You Must Have with Your Daughter by Vicki Courtney

I Read It!



Book Description:
From the cradle to college, tell your daughters the truth about life before they believe the culture's lies.
For mothers with girls newborn to eighteen, Five Conversations You Must Have with Your Daughter is simply a must-have book. Youth culture commentator Vicki Courtney helps moms pinpoint and prepare the discussions that should be ongoing in their daughters' formative years. To fully address the dynamic social and spiritual issues and influencers at hand, several chapters are written for each of the conversations, which are:

1. You are more than the sum of your parts
2. Don't be in such a hurry to grow up
3. Sex is great and worth the wait
4. It's OK to dream about marriage and motherhood
5. Girls gone wild are a dime a dozen--dare to be virtuous

The book is linked to online bonus features offering invaluable tips on having these conversations across the various stages of development: five and under, six to eleven, twelve and up.

My thoughts:
I first read about 5 Conversations You Must Have with Your Daughter by Vicki Courtney over a 5 Minutes for Books. Since I have a daughter on the verge of becoming a young lady I felt it would definitely be worth my time to read. This is such a timely book filled with vital information to help parents raise daughters that are not afraid to say no to lies that our society says is normal and acceptable. Definitely a worthwhile read!! Also, check out the 5 Conversations You Must Have with Your Daughter blog.
