About this listen

As a freedom-over-formula parenting guide for parents of all ages, Child Proof provides biblical insight and encouragement for listeners who want to parent by faith. As an experienced counselor of children and families, and an adoptive and foster mom applying the Christian Counselling and Educational Foundation (CCEF) model of biblical change, Julie Lowe uses biblical Scripture and spiritual wisdom to teach parents how to know their children and specifically love them with the love of Jesus Christ.

Every family is unique, which is why Child Proof explores the need for parents to cultivate personal and intimate care for their children as modeled in God's individual, personal, and fatherly care to his children. This parenting audiobook lays a foundation of parenting by faith and progresses by teaching Christian parents how they can know their own children well and parent accordingly. By discussing particular issues parents might have in family life, Lowe demonstrates how parenting formulas aren't the answer, and parenting with biblical wisdom is best for a proactive rather than reactive approach to raising children.

Through Lowe's personal and professional experience, Christian parents as well as those helping parents pastors, counselors and counseling students, youth workers, and churches will discover gospel-centered application rather than formulas for the ideal family, equipping parents to be experts at knowing their own children so they can know biblical Scripture and live it out personally in their homes.

I find myself both agreeing and disagreeing with the author, but highly recommend Chapters 6 and 15. Overall, I feel that in making her point that it's about faithfulness of the parents, not formulas or outcomes, the author goes overboard. A lot of common-sense wisdom has accumulated over millennia of parenting, and I feel that the modern audience is actually missing some of these very practical tips which the author unfortunately downplays as "formula." But I certainly agree that parents must prayerfully filter all the parenting advice out there to seek the particular solutions (and most importantly, heart and relationships) that will work for their family. Also, while I certainly agree with the author that we cannot control the souls of our children and thus guarantee certain outcomes, I also feel over-emphasizing individuality and lack of control over outcomes goes too far: parenting does involve a degree of sowing what we reap. Overall, a thoughtful--though in my opinion too one-sided--consideration of a complex topic.
