The sad story of the Virginia Tech shootings has given all of us much to think about. For parents, just one more thing to wonder: "what is my child like inside? is she angry, really angry?"
Anger happens — even in "nice" families. Siblings annoy one another, parents get in bad moods, situations at school and work seem unjust. Jesus said, "be angry but do not sin." What does that mean? How can we help our children and teenagers handle this emotion? especially when perhaps we ourselves struggle with it, too?
Some months ago, I heard about the book The Heart of Anger. I haven't yet read it, so cannot personally recommend it — this is just an F.Y.I. It is a Christian parenting book, and was reviewed very positively by buyers at Amazon. (The photo links to the page at Amazon) If you read The Heart of Anger, let me know what you think!
