Book review: Growing Up Duggar: "it's all about relationships"

Book Review of Growing Up Duggar: "It's All About Relationships"

The four oldest Duggar girls (part of a family of 19 children with conservative Christian values) tell about the way they were raised and their family's very strong and clear values in this narrative style book, told in a way that girls, teens, and moms can all appreciate.  The chapters of the book are concentrically arranged from learning to respect oneself all the way up through the circle of family, friends, country, and world.

You and Yourself-
Comparing your appearance to others leads down a long road of dissatisfaction.  It takes you away from focusing on appreciating how G-d made you, and doing something purposeful with your time. 
Craving approval from others gives them the power.
