Rhonda Stoppe describes her early motherhood challenges of raising a son, which was intimidating to her. She found help through group of older women mentors (her “Mommy Club”). She urges moms to see their role as ministry in shaping sons to be good and godly men. Rhonda described her challenges of raising son Brandon, who has epilepsy, as well as her son Tony, whom the Stoppes informally “fostered” for several years. Rhonda outlines several practical suggestions to moms about spiritual training, how to communicate with boys, and supporting the father-son relationship as a wife.

I tried my best in raising my kids, I was young, isolated many miles away from my family, a new Christian, abusive husband........I want a redo but that’s not an option, I can only pray for healing of the past !

@DraGnFly007 3 года назад

God's gift to our children is when our children turn out well regardless of our many mistakes. Never stop praying for your children. It doesn't end when they grow up.💗

@natashariley4315 Год назад

Praying strength from our Lord will fill you with peace. I can relate to your struggle. Jesus wants you to know he intercedes in prayer for you and your family. Keep praying

My son pushed me away too at 13. I cried for days because, at first I didn't think it would happen to me and my son. I'm a single mom, trying to raise a Godly young man and it is hard 😢.

@debramillion5782 Год назад

I was a single Mom of 2 boys for many years, but went through 4 failed marriages. I was strict on my 2 sons, but thankfully had a wonderful Mother and step-Dad, who helped me so much. Today my sons are 46 and 47. They've been married to their only wives for over 20 yrs now. At first I felt abandoned when they both joined the Army after High School and then married. Sometimes, I no longer feel like a mother, because they don't need me much anymore. In fact, my youngest hasn't spoken or contacted me for 2 yrs now, because of politics and I'm a Christian. But I still love them both and pray for them daily. I'm proud of the men they grew up to be and thankful because I know they will be saved someday. My oldest is a believer but not practicing. My youngest claims he's agnostic. The devil is a liar and I'm believing and praying for them because I gave them to the Lord many yrs ago. He will make a way.

I'm praying the Lord draws both of your sons to a wholehearted devotion to Jesus.

@dasowle89 3 года назад

With my son I use the Stop what you are doing (if possible)...Look at the person and give them your full attention...and listen to understand method. This goes both for him and I when I am speaking or correcting him or if is speaking to me. It has helped us gain respect in our mom and son relationship.

@elizabethvasquez9540 3 года назад

I love listening and learning from Rhonda’s life’s experience with her sons. Does she have another book for daughters? I am not a Mom but an Aunt of two beautiful little girls but the youngest at times can be very challenging. She’s six and sometimes has a very temperamental spirit and can be impatient to communicate when she is challenged by even small things. If her effort to join class from her computer if it doesn’t allow her to enter class for a technical reason she loses her collective spirit and stomps away and displays giving up and won’t listen to calm reasoning. I am a point of how do I communicate effectively to have her to be patient and try to be calm and resourceful? Your recommendations are most welcome! Thank you! Elizabeth

@focusonthefamily 3 года назад

Thanks so much for your message, Elizabeth. Rhonda doesn't have a similar book on raising girls, but we do have some other resources you might consider: bddy.me/2MrJOK8, bddy.me/3kuPMqq, bddy.me/2ZTGQkO. One of our counselors may also be able to offer some insight on effective communication with your niece. If you'd like to arrange a free consultation, please feel free to call us at 800-A-FAMILY (800-232-6459). God bless you!

Carla thank you for this comment. I am so glad you were able to listen to this episode where I shared the story of my son's seizure activity. I know you made this comment a year ago, but I felt led to respond and encourage your Momma heart. I'm praying your son's seizures are in control.

@AJLORACLE Год назад

It’s all great my son and I were like best friends……. Until he started puberty, it broke my heart he changed overnight, he didn’t want hugs or to spend time with me etc After some research I discovered it’s all natural for them to detach in order to become a man. All I can say is teach him to respect you! Don’t do everything for him, raise the kind of guy who is a well rounded human who can look after themself.

I relate so much to everything they said! I'm a mom of five boys and one girl. The boys all came first. I'm here to tell you that boys and girls are very different! My boys are rough and tumble, plays with trucks, trains and Legos. Favorite colors are gold, green, blue and red My daughter plays with dollies, little figurines, barbie who's favorite colors are pink and purple. The boys are loud and my girl is quiet but says so much! It's been an incredible experience!
