Product Description
One–parent households frame the new landscape of American family life. But raising kids alone is hard work, and single parenting is a struggle for most. David and Lisa Frisbie provide a practical and proactive plan single moms or single dads can use to... - nourish their own souls, maintaining a vibrant faith in God and a vital connection to family and friends
- nurture their children, empowering kids to successfully process the trauma of divorce
- manage their households as they assume roles and tasks that may lie well outside their comfort zone
- build a future they can enjoy, making choices about education, careers, finances, and relationships
The Frisbies’ constant travel and ongoing counseling ministry provide a rich reservoir of effective strategies and ideas. Moms and dads who parent alone will find confidence and hope from this manageable and optimistic approach.

Clear, Practical Help for Single Parents! June 15, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This book is easy to read, clear and practical. Hugely helpful for single parents, I was surprised to find help for single dads here, not just for single moms. BOTH are included; both will find great help in these pages.
I've heard these authors twice now, at seminars in southern California. They're exactly the same in person: clear, down-to-earth, and practical.
They're also funny --- a lot of the humor finds its way into the books.
GREAT book for single parents; really good stuff about raising your teens.

I Wish I'd Had This Twelve Years Ago... March 25, 2007
13 out of 13 found this review helpful
When my divorce was final 12 years ago, I was left to raise two sons. I felt hopeless and alone (although people reached out to me) and I certainly felt unable to raise two boys. My sons are teens now. "Raising Great Kids" has some of the wisest parenting insights I've found anywhere, for kids of any age but especially for parents of teens or pre-teens. Wow. I wish I'd had this book twelve years ago, but I'm glad I found it now.
