The Mother at Home
Author: John S. C. Abbott
Long esteemed as one of the most valued works from the 19th century on the art of mothering and the glory of the work of the mother at home, The Mother at Home is valuable reading for any girl or young women desiring instruction on proper discipline of her own children. — Rarely in print and worth obtaining at any price, The Mother a...  more » is a superb guide for Christian mothers who want biblical counsel on Christian child rearing. The object of this valuable book is practical utility, as opposed to literary effect. Written in 1833 for mothers in the common walks of life, it tunes into the realities and seriousness of child rearing. John Abbott s eloquent and powerful illustrations provoke a parent to focus on the child's soul; not just their mind (i.e. education) or body (i.e. health). Abbott clearly understood that the child will one day grow up; and how he or she is raised now will affect the end result (Proverbs 22:6).

Couples who read this book together will achieve more unity in parenting, plus a better understanding of what needs to be done for children. One of the most helpful, to the point, books ever written outside of the Bible, The Mother at Home is recommended to all parents with children.
