Om værket:
This rare and classic book from 1699 details the relationship between parents and children and the authors view on the duties between them. Cotton Mather was an influential Puritan Minister from Boston Massachusetts who lived from 1663 to 1728. In ‘A Family Well Ordered’, Cotton Mather attempts to promote peace and harmony between parents and children by referring to biblical instructions. He goes into great detail in explaining the benefits of salvation and harmony and warns of an inevitable wrath when the parents or the children or both neglect their spiritual obligations to each other.
A Family Well Ordered is a great read for those who want to return to the way parenting was done many years ago. You know, back before the children were in charge.
Like C.S. Lewis said, "It is a good rule, after reading a new book, never to allow yourself another new one till you have read an old one in between. If that is too much for you, you should at least read one old one to every three new ones.
Every age has its own outlook. It is specially good at seeing certain truths and specially liable to make certain mistakes. We all, therefore, need the books that will correct the characteristic mistakes of our own period. And that means the old books. All contemporary writers share to some extent the contemporary outlook - even those, who seem most opposed to it."
This book has solid practical parenting advice from an age when people managed to raise children who were, as a general rule, an asset to the society in which they took part. Despite our technology and so called education today, we can't seem to manage to raise a generation of children who are anything more than a burden to the society in which they were born. It is time to go back to what works!
