Keys to Healthy and Loving Family Relationships

Happy and healthy family relationships grow from decisions to work through all the problems of life in a constructive and loving way.

Homes are more than houses of walls and beams.  Homes are built with thoughtful caring concern where the family unit shares protection, support, sacrifice and love.
Careful planning turns a house into a home for the people who dwell there.

Eight sessions are presented each representing a parenting class to help parents grow into strong, supportive and loving mentors for their children.  The materials provided may be used to guide discussion and considerations for a 50-60 minute parenting session.

 The materials in these sessions were compiled and used by the author (Dr. Marjorie Coppock) over a three year period to guide young women who came to the Pregnancy Care Center (San Antonio).  The young women responded well to the materials presented and expressed appreciation for the help.

Each session has been entered as a separate blog in this blogsite. (www.concerningthis.blogspot.com)
