Raising children in today's society is increasingly becoming challenging for parents because of a multitude of weakening factors; children also face a lot of temptations and risks, influences from peers, harmful trends, and addictive substances. Parents have become weaker and lonelier as the extended family is slowly shrinking, plus there are many other factors that have taken away their authority. Courageous Parents: Opposing Bad Behavior, Impulses, and Trends by Haim Omer throws light on the parental anchor, which is not only security but also a strong and positive attachment to and for the child. Drift and anchor form the leading metaphors in this book and will encourage parents to be courageous when it comes to dealing with their children.

Haim Omer tackles a relevant topic with aplomb and expertise and discusses the change in the family structure in recent times, which is one of the causes of increasing helplessness in parents. The techniques and tools shared by the author will help parents deal with the unpleasant situations they find themselves in when it comes to their kids. There are real stories and experiences in Courageous Parents: Opposing Bad Behavior, Impulses, and Trends that will help parents connect with the author. This will help them review their parenting methods and make changes that help transform the equation between the parent and the child. These suggestions can be used by counselors, therapists, psychologists, parents, and educators when tackling issues between parents and children in a mature and peaceful way.
