The Tender Hearted Mom: Balancing Gentleness and Toughness

Mom, are you too tenderhearted Do you have a hard time getting tough when you need to Are you afraid that being tough might ruin your tenderness All mothers are divinely gifted with tenderness. And this gentleness is essential to the healthy development of their children. Yet as moms care for their children they face a painful dilemma--How to balance gentleness with toughness that they must use sometimes to discipline and set boundaries for their children. In The Tenderhearted Mom, counselor and author Jan Stoop shows women how to exercise motherhood with just the right blend of tenderness and firmness. Many women struggle with the tender-tough dilemma because their own mothers failed to resolve it. Some were too tough and others were too soft. This book helps these moms to analyze their styles of mothering by recognizing the patterns they received from their mothers. And it helps them to break out of inadequate mothering molds and adopt a style of caring for children that balances gentleness and toughness.
