Discovering Your Child’s Unique Needs

Counselor Julie Lowe explains that, because every child is unique, the use of parenting formulas won’t deliver the results that moms and dads are seeking. She encourages parents to instead get to know each of their children as individuals, and to rely on biblically-based wisdom for raising them.
