Passing on the Torch / Dudley, Roger L / (HB/1986-1986/B+/USED)

*Condition Note: Book is in good condition and and may be lightly marked. *

"How can I make my kids behave?" "How can I lead my children to love God as much as I do?" Do you notice the difference between those questions? They illustrate the difference between two extremes of child training. Are you a parent? a teacher? Then you are no doubt concerned with how to pass on your religious values to the young people in your charge. Is it done by precept or example? If it is a mixture of each, what is the ratio? What is the psychology involved in helping the younger generation to identify with the faith of the church? In helping them to value the best things in life or even to identify what is best?

Roger Dudley has reviewed the literature in the field of value clarification and transference. In addition, he has done considerable original research in the field. In this book he analyzes the implications in regard to religious values in particular and offers practical help to parents and teachers to make their work more effective.
