Born Only Once An Excellent Book To Help With the 2nd P "Person"
There is a book I would like to recommend to all MROL Website visitors - it's called Born Only Once by the late Catholic psychologist Dr Conrad Baars. I recommend this book on two levels - first for Mom and Dad , and secondly, for any parent who wishes to raise healthy and happy children.
Born Only Once is about personal growth the way God intended it and the power of love, real & true love, in this process. For Moms, it helps us to understand why we feel the way we do, how emotional growth occurs, problems with our emotions which may have occured due to a lack of love in our lives - and then it progresses to give some key advice about how to bring more emotional and personal peace into our lives.
But it is also a very important little book for parents - as it goes through the many ways we can 'non-affirm' our children and harm them, and then gives recommendations about how to bring out the best in our children, and empower them to be holy and healthy kids and adults.
As I read this book, I found myself reading it on two levels - one for me, and one for how to love my children better. I highly recommend this, and consider the work of Dr Baars an essential read for those who wish to add to St Thomas Aquinas' philosophy of man. In my opinion, Dr Baars grasp on the emotions and their role in the whole person's development is a mind-opening revelation for our times. And couple Born Only Once with Dr Baar's other excellent book, Feeling and Healing Your Emotions, and I think we have a relevant and necessary insight into the human person for our time in history - something I don't believe has fully been understood before. I plan to introduce both of these books into my high school curriculum for my children as I consider Dr Baar's teaching here essential to understanding personal growth.
