Our world is only getting more frightening. Sources of fear--both rational and irrational--threaten children and send mothers into panic. This book shows mothers how to recognize when such fears are out of proportion. With tender humor and encouraging insights, author Allie Pleiter helps women thrive in the paradox of being protector, encourager, and comforter all at the same time. It also gives them a chance to laugh at themselves as they realize they are not alone in their fears. Drawing from expert psychological advice--alongside testimony from real moms with real fears--this book brings the bolstering voice of hope that it is possible to walk the tightrope between being wisely aware of danger and allowing the prospect of danger to paralyze. This book is part of the Hearts at Home Workshop Series designed to encourage, equip, and educate moms who are at home or who would like to be. It is ideal for personal use, group discussions, and mentoring relationships. Questions for personal reflection are included as well as a leader's guide with discussion starters.
