The Family Fragrance: Filling Your Home with the Sweet Aroma of Love

Parenting doesn't have to be a battle. It can be enjoyable. As a single mom, this book has been a great tool to help me create a better environment to raise my children in. A very good read, easy to apply - I highly recommend to all parents; traditional or non-traditional, Christian and non-Christian alike.

The authors compare the fragrance of the home to the atmosphere that is created by the parents. It revolves around the acrostic "A-R-O-M-A" which stands for Affection, Respect, Order, Merriment, and Affirmation. The foundation for each word in the acrostic is first set up in the chapter, then practical guidelines are suggested and each chapter ends with a plethora of practical tips.Many family books come across judgmental. This book does not. It points out some errors found in every home, and helps the reader find solutions. It is one book in the line of many books produced by Heritage Builders Association, a network of families intent on passing a healthy legacy to the next generation.
