Often when we as parents give ourselves to the task of responsible child rearing, we overlook one of the most important challenges God has given us: learning to release our children, and allowing them to become people who don't need us anymore. We forget that the main job of parenting is to help our children become independent adults. This book examines the letting-go process: how and why children and parents react to it; the importance of it to both; God's purpose in it. The purpose of this book is to motivate parents to practice letting go, little by little, moment by moment, as a child grows up, from toddlerhood through middle childhood through adolescence. The book explains what "letting go" is, its biblical basis, why it is difficult, why it is important, how it happens, and its rewards. Learning to Let Go gives new insight and meaning to the biblical injunction to "train up a child in the way he should go." - Back cover.
