THE BLAMELESS PARENT’S MEDIA GUIDE:
10 Tips to Tune Out the Noise and Train Up a Child
This is just a small electronic book (e-book) created to quickly get the message out that “Education is important GEAR for LIFE” and “We grow stronger as we link”. It is intended to simply encourage more talk among diverse groups of parents and to inspire more discussion with our children about media images and messages. We are attempting to stop the spread of media “BRAIN POISONING”. We plan to update the guide each year to incorporate the feedback and ideas of concerned parents.
MISSION:
To build awareness of importance of providing CORRECT media images to children during formative years especially 0-6 years old.
RATIONALE AND INSPIRATION:
“Right now U are giving this information to people who know U…There are so many other people who need to know this information and they are left out! I see a talk group growing from your outreach efforts!” Pastor Elizabeth Goins, Silent Rock Church of the Deliverance
PROCESS:
I decided to take information from a variety of perspectives, compile it into one document and distribute it FREELY so that others can benefit from all of the work. Throughout this e-book U will see that I use a very relaxed and conversational tone. U will also quickly notice that I use the capital U for expressing the word “YOU”.
I do this purposely in most of my writing to over emphasize the need for comfortable communication among ALL parents and to drive home the critical accountability that each of us has to one another. We hope that in this guide U will find at least 10 tips that will help U in raising an outstanding child despite the media noise and available “brain poisons”. We do not have time to wait on “them or they”…U have the power to DO for your children who are our future dreamers, leaders and achievers!
Sisterly love,
Joan E. Gosier
