Parenting Beyond Belief: On Raising Ethical, Caring Kids Without Religion

by Dale Mcgowan

Parenting Beyond Belief: On Raising Ethical, Caring Kids Without Religion Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

It's hard enough to live a secular life in a religious world. And bringing up children without religious influence can be even more daunting. Despite the difficulties, a large and growing number of parents are choosing to raise their kids without religion. In Parenting Beyond Belief, Dale McGowan celebrates the freedom that comed with raising kids without formal indoctrination and advises parents on the most effective way to raise freethinking children. With advice from educators, doctors, psychologists, and philosophers as well as wisdom from everyday parents, the book offers tips and insights on a variety of topics, from "mixed narriages" to coping with death and loss, and from morality and ethics to dealing with holidays. Sensitive and timely, the book features reflections from such freethinkers as Mark Twain, Richard Dawkins, Bertrand Russell, and wellness guru Dr. Don Ardell that will empower every parent to raise both caring and independent children without constraints.
