Bodies and Boundaries

Bodies and Boundaries equips parents of adolescent children to move from being the “sage on the stage” to becoming the “guide by their side” as children grow in independence toward adulthood.

As your children grow in maturity in the highschool and early college years, it’s still important to have conversations with them, to guide them to God’s will, and to offer them support and love. Don’t assume your job as a parent is done. You never stop being a parent!

This Program Will Teach You

  • Relationship Before Romance

    Guide your children to put the focus on the right things as they enter the dating life. Help them build good, healthy, loving relationships before they enter into romance.

  • Self-Worth vs. Self-Esteem

    Our culture puts so much emphasis on self-esteem – how we feel about ourselves. But as your young adult solidifies his or her identity, offer the much more firm foundation of the self-worth that comes from God’s love.

  • Theology of the Body

    Help you young man or woman understand the sacred meaning of their bodies, and of sex and marriage, by introducing them to this treasure of the Church’s teachings.

  • Understanding Marriage

    Our world has lost all sight of the meaning of marriage and of God’s plan for it. Share the beauty of marriage as a Sacrament and a vocation!

  • Vital Discussions

    Parents need to talk to their children about chastity – often and in an ongoing conversation. What is chastity and why is it important? Is it still valid to expect your children to wait until they are married to have sex? This segment will teach you how to talk to your children about chastity.

  • What Matters

    We want our children to follow God’s will in their life. But do we teach them to discern what God wants them to do and how He wants them to live? This segment of Bodies & Boundaries will show you how.

  • Explanations They Need

    How can we know where the moral line is for sexual acts? What is morally right and what is morally wrong? Wouldn’t it be nice if there was a simple, consistent way to explain sexual morality to our children? This segment offers you the formula to do just that.

  • Yes, They Will Falter

    Parents can do their best to raise their children in goodness. But everyone has free will. Every human person is fallen. Every child makes mistakes. Sometimes those mistakes are large – sometimes they are small. As a loving parent, how do you respond when your children falter? This segment of Bodies & Boundaries shares some wisdom.

  • Zeal to Parent

    How can you maintain the zeal to parent that you first had when your child was a baby? What do you do to make it through the drama and trials of parenting without losing your zeal to parent? How do you remain involved in your child’s life while at the same time giving him or her the freedom they need to become an adult? This segment of Bodies & Boundaries shows you how to keep the zeal to parent through it all!

What They're Saying

Highly Recommend Teaching the Way of Love

My wife and I recently purchased the DVD and workbook for “Embrace Parenthood”. It was an incredibly insightful and informative program. We have been parenting for over 6 years and wish this would have been available to us before we had our children. We strongly recommend parents view this material! We will be repeat customers to From the Abbey based on our experience with this program and the prompt shipping.

Every Catholic Parent Needs This Program

I recently purchased the Catholic Parenting Program “Embrace Parenthood” through From the Abbey’s Teaching the Way of Love Program. I highly recommend it. It is easy to read and understand and you can start making changes immediately. Every Catholic Parent needs this program, to help understand what their role is as a parent the way God intended. I also like that they offer the entire program to teach the whole Parish. Well done, God Bless!

I would call it Zeal!!!!

I just finished the Become a Family segment you sent for review. I applaud both of you. I am so excited. I would call it Zeal!!!! I have been in parenting education for over 25 years in the secular world. Last year the Lord started calling me to take my gifts and apply them to my Catholic faith. I was starting to write a Catholic parenting curriculum and my eyes caught a blurb in a neighboring church bulletin announcing parenting classes. That is where I looked up yours. When I went to your website and saw Search Institute’s developmental assets you sold me. I like informational sheets to back up your teaching. I am so excited and blessed to see such great work!
