That's huge, because you could spend hundreds of hours reading thousands of pages on what you should expect when you bring a new life into this world, but you're a busy guy and you're barely halfway through this paragraph and already getting antsy.

Most Christian parenting books are ready with exact practices every family should follow in order to raise obedient children.
