Resumen del Editor

Parenting and education are hard, and little frustrates an authority more than a child who refuses or seems unable to pay attention. In the face of this frustration, some parents resort to counseling and even medication. Yet Scripture offers proven counsel for parents to implement into their homes. Teaching a Child to Pay Attention compassionately examines this problem from a biblical perspective. Building on his first book, The Truth about ADHD: Genuine Hope and Biblical Answers, Dr. Berger shows that problems with attention are not specific to children diagnosed as having ADHD rather these problems are universal: all children must be taught to pay attention rightly. This premise, along with the belief that the Scriptures addresses the child's education, provides the framework for the solution. These two ideas make this book, like the first one, a no-nonsense yet compassionate guide to genuine hope for frustrated parents. It offers parents and teachers a step-by-step plan from Proverbs for teaching a child to pay attention rightly and helping them to succeed.

The Bible is Sufficient

Daniel gives parents a biblical lens to look through for rightly understanding their children’s inattentiveness. Scripture (especially the book of Proverbs) guides parents on not only how to view the inattentiveness of their children, but also how to train them to submit their attention (interest and obedience) to their parents. Great quick read packed with biblical wisdom, which upends the social imagination of your child’s inattentiveness as a “disorder” unique to a subset of children with alleged ADHD. All children (all adults too) as fallen humans face the sinful reality of being self interested rather than interested in the training of their parents, authorities, etc.
