Parenting with Faith, Hope and Resilience

This book is a memoir of a divine calling to transracial, special needs adoption and a big family.

Children should feel unconditionally valued and accepted regardless of birth circumstance, race, or ability—and Trisha Campbell and her family rose to this challenge. After a faith search inspired her to care for hungry orphans in a developing country, she and her husband responded to God’s calling and adopted five children to join their biological three.

Life in a big, transracial family can be difficult, especially when many in society don’t think White families should adopt kids of color. But when God is in the lead, every day is an adventure—never lonely, never boring.

Often, we imagine parenting will be a beautiful place where we start a wonderful adventure…

And it is.

But like most adventures, there are challenges.
You can do all the right things, with all the purest motives and still go through storms.
I get it… I’ve been there and done that.
Which brings me to here and now for you… As a willing guide that’s made the journey.
My greatest hope is to help quiet your parental storms, or quiet your soul as you go through them. I don’t know everything nor do I pretend to… but I can give perspective and insight for the wonderful journey ahead!

Yes! It can be done…keep them off as long as you can. And her approach has kept her free of teenage resentment as well. Well done mom!Jennifer Garner's three children are going to have to break out the charts, graphs and PowerPoint presentations if they want her approval to be on social media. The star spoke with Savannah Guthrie and Hoda Kotb on TODAY about how she has kept her children off social media without her teenagers resenting her. "I just said to my kids, ‘Show me the articles that prove that social media is good for teenagers, and then we’ll have the conversation,'" Garner said. "Find scientific evidence that matches what I have that says that it’s not good for teenagers, then we’ll chat." Garner, 50, shares daughters Violet, 17, and Seraphina, 13, and son Samuel, 11, with ex-husband Ben Affleck.Numerous studies have found links between negative mental health effects in teens and an increase in social media use, including depression, anxiety and low self-esteem.Garner said her daughter Violet has appreciated being away from social media. Seraphina and Samuel, meanwhile, are entering the prime age of when many kids start asking parents if they can create their own accounts. "My eldest is grateful," Garner said. "It’s a long haul. I have a couple more to go, so just knock on wood. We’ll see if I really hang in there."Yes, Jennifer! You've got this! Parents,✅Delay smartphones until at least 8th grade with the Wait Until 8th pledge. Need to get in touch before, check out some basic phones on our website. ✅Delay social media until at least 16+! ✅ Talk to your kids about why you have concerns about social media. ✅ When you do permit social media, start slowly! Set time restrictions. Monitor their social media. Check in. Talk.✅ Keep phones out of the bedroom especially at night. No excuses! You've got this parents! ... See MoreSee Less

I love this…written by a father of 6, with 2 sets of twins. ❤️I remember back when we first told people that my wife was pregnant with twins—there were plenty of handshakes, hugs, and congratulations, but I also heard this line quite a bit: “Oh man, your life is over!” A common refrain, and one which all parents have heard expressed, in some variation or another, many times. Of course, it’s usually said with a smile and a laugh, but it reveals something true: Your life *is* over when you have kids.That thing that I called MY life. That portion of existence — that long, lonely chapter — when I lived for me, and me alone. That delusion known as my life, where I exerted, or thought I exerted, ownership over my whole self. Where I separated my life from all other lives, and lived to satisfy my whims and desires. That’s all over. I’m not living for me anymore. I never should have lived just for me, but now I can’t. Either I become less selfish, or I fail in my duty as a parent. There is no middle ground.Parenting requires you to live for something greater than yourself. In fact, it requires you to redefine and repurpose your concept of self. Surely, that doesn’t mean that I have no identity, or that I shouldn’t take time to unwind, or that I shouldn’t be sure to step away from the kids sometimes and take my wife out on a date. So I get it. My kids aren’t my life. But I’m not my life, either. I was at one time, or I thought I was, but not anymore. And their lives are eternally tied to mine, and mine to theirs, and every decision that I make will have an impact on them, for better or for worse. This is a responsibility that I must always keep in mind, all of the time, no matter what. It’s not my life. It’s hers, it’s theirs, it’s ours. Ultimately, it’s His, and He has given it to them. So my life — MY life — is over. This is true. This is beautiful. This is why parenting is a high calling. ... See MoreSee Less
