In recent years, many books have been published on the topic of
Jewish parenting. What sets this book apart from others is the
powerful message of its author, Allan Gonsher, who is an
experienced family therapist with the dual perspective of a
practicing Jew and a clinician trained in psychology and
inter-personal dynamics. An Allowance is Not a Bribe is the result
of this unique viewpoint on Jewish parenting. The author shows
parents how a Torah-based life holds many answers to the deepest
needs within every Jewish individual and how belief in God and the
performance of mitzvot offer the coping skills necessary for
dealing with the emotional challenges of today's world. Again and
again, the author calls upon his knowledge of psychology and
interconnects his experience with the tools of counseling and his
faith in Judaism to offer guidance to today's parents. Neither a
"how to" nor a discussion of overall parenting skills, An Allowance
is Not a Bribe follows the author's personal "Jewish journey" as it
pertains to his life and his perspective on the subject of raising
responsible Jewish children. For Gonsher, a passionate commitment
to Judaism is the most important legacy he and his wife have given
their three sons. Thus, he encourages other Jewish parents to start
their own Jewish journeys and to serve as role models in secular
standards and in matters of faith and spirituality, from the time
their children enter pre-school until they are grown. For example,
Gonsher explains the "4-B Approach" for helping children as young
as six become responsible for their bedroom, bathroom, breakfast,
and backpack.
