PLANO, Texas, July 27, 2015 /Christian Newswire/ -- "Parenting is one of life's greatest privileges," says June Hunt, co-author with PeggySue Wells of Bonding with Your Child through Boundaries (available in stores July 31, 2015). "Yet, over the years I've seen so many parents perplexed -- and too many parents in pain. They want a one-step solution, but the answer isn't that easy. The answer is a mind-set that seems to work miracles. It's a mind-set centered on the word boundaries and flanked between repercussions and rewards."
 
"No matter what age your child is now, your goal as a parent is to help shape their minds and hearts, cultivating inner attitudes that will be reflected in their outer behavior for a lifetime," says Hunt. "God intended the home to be an incubator for children, a place for kids to explore their worlds and become all He created them to be. Within this safe nest, the parent's role is to nurture their potential, discourage their defiance and focus on their strengths."
 
In Bonding with Your Child through Boundaries, Hunt and Wells help parents understand why boundaries are essential in parenting, sharing biblically-based principles for implementing boundaries and answering frequently asked questions about boundaries, such as, "Will boundaries limit my child's creativity?" and "How do I lay a foundation for boundaries to work?"
 
After laying the foundation for the necessity of boundaries, the book offers 36 practical, parent-tested "how to" steps for making boundaries work in your family. Topics include anger and aggression, back talk, chore struggles, homework hassles, mealtimes and -- everyone's favorite -- whining, as well as practical boundaries that can be implemented to handle the situation, tips on what to say to your child when dealing with the issue and what the Bible has to say about the situation.
 
"When children are secure in whom they are -- and whose they are -- they are better equipped to make good decisions," says Hunt. "The Bible says, 'Discipline your children, and they will give you peace of mind and will make your heart glad' (Proverbs 29:17 NLT). In short, boundaries can be a parent's most powerful parenting tool."
