Purchase options and add-ons

Do you ever feel like you need a guide for what to say to your children about the most important topics in their childhood? Do you want to understand why our society struggles with crucial conversations about consent, body safety, sexuality, masturbation, porn, social media, and smart devices? Many of us cannot find the words to have life's most difficult conversations because we did not have these types of talks for generations. Clint Davis, licensed counselor and father, guides us through the how's, why's, when's, and what's of having these daring and pivotal conversations. Sexual trauma and overexposure to damaging content run rampant today and our children need to be protected at all costs.

In Building Better Bridges, Clint uses clinical examples, research and personal stories to make nuanced information accessible and available to anyone. Most or us are doing the best we can with what wars we have, but we do not have much in the form of support in these areas. This book will give you more support and direction than you could ever imagine. In the following pages, you will get answers to some of life's trickiest questions, questions that could bring healing to you, your children, and generations to come.

Building Better Bridges Addresses:

When do I talk to my child about sexual things?
How does generational trauma affect our ability to parent?
When do I give my child a smart device?
What are the risks to my child online?
What do I say if my child experiences something inappropriate or abusive?
What are the house rules that can keep everyone safe?
How do I build confidence in my child about their body and their sexual development?

Technology is a tool or a detriment to us. Using it correctly and wisely is important to the future of our society and our children. Clint Davis addresses this and so much more in his book, Building Better Bridges. His open approach to all things related to sexuality and concerns with how we are conversing with our kids is refreshing and enlightening. Definitely a must read for all parents and child therapists.

I just finished but will be reading it again and referring back to several chapters over the years. Thank you for this awesome resource. This world is so different than what we grew up in and I definitely need help navigating it to best protect my kiddos!

Clint! Way to go!!! Thank you for your boldness to call out the way pornography has been almost unavoidable therefore impacting our children, adults and ultimately impacting our society! You mentioned how a person can stop taking cocaine, but the images from porn are not erased. This is critical information to get out, especially for parents having children 18 years and younger! Thank you too for giving examples of how a parent can talk to their child about taboo subjects. Thank you for being a voice in our society saying WAKE-UP! Finally! Thank you for writing this book in a way that is so easy to read!!! A must read for any who want to know how to be a better parent and protect their children! Krista Gaston

If you are a parent trying to navigate the new world, this should be required reading.

Our children are in a totally different world than we were, and ever more so than our grandparents. With it comes new challenges that I protect and teach them.

Clint does a great job of identifying the problem and then giving you the tools to overcome them. He gently guided us through the changes that need to be made, and is nothing but encouraging through the entire book.

Anyone raising children should check this book out !!!!

Clint uses an honest, conversational style to discuss topics our society has deemed taboo. His thorough exploration of all things sex, screens, and exposure not only informs and provides context for where we are and how we got here, but offers a detailed explanation of how to reverse the cycles of generational trauma and neglect. Clint encouraged me to think deeply while exploring my own past and parenting, all while laughing in the process. This is a must read for every parent, future parent, caregiver, etc!

I have two adult daughters with children ages 12, 9, 8, 7, 5, 3, 2 so I bought them each one and one for myself.

I know Clint. I trust his research, Biblical approach and his authenticity. Whether you read the book from cover to cover or choose specific chapters, you will come away with a better approach to communicating with your children.
