In her book, Be Rebellious: Fight Back
Against a Culture that Doesn’t Care About You, Megan Clinton has written an
outstanding book for young women. I have
told numerous parents about this book and the need for parents with girls to
read this. Megan Clinton is right on
with her appraisal of the worlds expectations for girls.
As a result, we don’t become the
very people God created us to be. As a
father of two boys I was intrigued and wanted to read this book, as my sons
have many friends who are girls. I see
the struggles and the way they are seduced by society to be who they are
not. They have bought into the lies that
you have to have certain looks, clothes, shoes, be revealing, speak a certain
way to be “liked.”
Megan’s call is for this generation
of young women to Be Rebellious. They
should not buy into the cultural expectations.
She gives many examples, some personal, some from friends and
acquaintances to help the reader understand her points.
She also makes the book practical
and understandable. It’s not about
beating you up over your mistakes, but in becoming the woman God called you to
be. This is not a book which beats up
the reader. This is an encouraging
read. It’s one I would recommend for
every parent of a prepubescent girl to read and even for churches who want to
minister to this age in youth groups!
