About the Book

Book: Raising Kids Who Care

Author: Susy Lee

Genre: Non-fiction: Parenting and Family

Release date: June, 2022

Imagine knowing what your kids care about, having them listen to what you care about, then doing something about it, together!

Communication and connection are the key, and this is exactly what this book allows you to do. It guides you through 40 conversations to have with your kids, ones that really matter.

Whether you’re a parent, grandparent, educator or just care about kids and the world they’re growing up in, this book will provide you with rich resources and surprising insights to create that genuine connection.

In our complex world, we need to be aware of looming pitfalls and be intentional in helping kids navigate their way to compassion and wonder, driven by values and purpose. This path of conversations leads to amazing hope.

We all want kids to have happy, loving lives. As a society, we need kids who are also capable of thinking and acting beyond themselves to help others have happy, loving lives too. This book gives you what you’ll need to achieve both.

Inside, you’ll discover:

• Stories and research to inform your conversations
• Relationship skills to build empathy (like listening and conflict resolution)
• How to combat the worrying influences of our culture (like consumerism and technology)
• How to grow resilience, self-confidence, character, and strength
• How our kids can solve problems, rather than being brought down by them
• Thoughts and tips from other parents
• Advice from caring young adults about what worked for them!

"Raising Kids Who Care" by Susy Lee is a book that at first, I was thinking,  oh Great a book that will be hard to read and follow and than I was thinking I don't have any kids to raise anymore.  But I am gonna say " you really can't judge a book until you get into the pages. This book was really easy to read and easily followed.  The author has great ideas and the information she shared was really insightful. I really recommend this book to all parents. 

The subjects talked about are love languages and technology and how to be a friend, listening and consuming goods and forgiveness and  faith and religion.  She also give ideals on how to put these ideals into practice. I liked reading the answers that others ( young preteens) gave to some of her questions. 

I was given a complimentary copy by the author and Celebrate Lit and these opinions are my own.

More from Susy

I didn’t grow up in a Christian family, but I loved watching my children grow up in our church community. They had relationships of all ages and many opportunities to practise caring – things I’d missed.My boys grew to be young men who are kind and faithful, with careers that will contribute to God’s world.

 

In my book I’ve brought together some useful stuff I’ve researched (because I didn’t trust my own broken upbringing), and that I’ve learnt in my ministry with caring Christian organizations. And I’ve made it a resource for families to talk together – kids are amazing when we make time to really listen to them.

 

This book is not just for Christians though. I wrote it for parents who care about growing compassion and generosity in their kids. I wrote for parents who want to protect their kids from the strong cultural forces in our world that would lead kids astray. And I wrote it for parents who want to raise kids who believe they can do something about the problems in the world, not be overwhelmed by them.

 

I also wrote it for grandparents to give to their kids who are now parents – maybe even those who no longer go to church. I wrote it for parents who want to be intentional – maybe because their parents were not. And I wrote it to help churches reach out to parents who need support and encouragement.

 

Just quietly: I want to change the world, one family at a time! I love the vision of the Kingdom of God, and I think that families who know how to communicate well, about all the issues that surround them, will be better equipped to help bring the Kingdom to earth, as it is in heaven.

 

I’m delighted that God has already blessed my work – the book has won several prizes including First Place in The 2022 Christian Indie Awards in the Relationships and Family Category. Many churches have already used the book to run events for families. You can learn more about me and the book on my website: https://www.raisingkidswhocare.info/
