From the cradle to college, tell your daughters the truth about life before they believe the culture's lies.
For mothers with girls newborn to eighteen, Five Conversations You Must Have with Your Daughter is simply a must-have book. Youth culture commentator Vicki Courtney helps moms pinpoint and prepare the discussions that should be ongoing in their daughters' formative years.
To fully address the dynamic social and spiritual issues and influencers at hand, several chapters are written for each of the conversations, which are: 1. Don't let the culture define you; 2. Guard your heart; 3. Have a little sex respect; 4. Childhood is only for a season; and 5. You are who you've been becoming.

"Great resource for all moms to read and keep on their shelves. The tone of the book made me feel like I was sitting at coffee with a seasoned mom who has done her research, sought God's wisdom through the Bible and prayer, and shares her experiences candidly. I appreciate that there are tips for three different stages of development - 5 and under, 6 to 12, and 12 and over - which help equip moms to have these conversations at each stage or to jump in at whatever stage you daughter is currently in."

— Patty, 2/20/2014" Very relatable and nice Christian influence without being preachy. "
— Michelle, 2/15/2014" This was a great book about talking with your daughters. Vicki brings out alot of great points about how as Moms we can counter what society is telling our girls with truth. "
— Christy, 2/14/2014" Every parent, grandparent, aunt, anyone who is raising a girl needs to read this book. "
— Lisa, 1/22/2014" Not bad, a little simplistic. The advice really applies to kids 10/12 and older. Didn't apply much to my 6 year old. "
— Carrie, 1/16/2014" Full of statistics, practical ideas, and encouragement that make you think about the future of our daughters, and all that the world tells them... "
— Leanna, 1/16/2014" Great book that gives thoughtful insight about how to create conversations with your daughter about how she will interact with the world that she lives in while not conforming. Liked Vicki Courtney's approach as it gives the latitude to process what you should plan for long term. "
— Cyndie, 1/10/2014" I'm so glad I found this book now while my daughter is still so young - a must-read for moms of girls before they are tweens! "
— Marnie, 12/31/2013" There is definitely a lot to think about while rasing daughters. I will go back and reference this book in the future. "
— Toni, 12/14/2013" Food for thought, but the poor book was in desperate need of a heavy editing. In addition to multiple grammatical errors, the author frequently cited studies with the assumption that correlation equals causation. "
— Shannon, 12/9/2013" I really recommend this book for any mother or father of a daughter of any age. "
