 After reading the book, 13 year old Hannah from Sacramento said, - “My favorite chapters were Chapter 8 - “Don’t Fail to Honor your parents and Chapter 9 - “Don’t live with Unforgiveness”.  The reason I like Chapter 8 is because, to tell you the truth, I don’t really honor my parents a lot like I should be doing and that chapter really spoke to me about honoring my parents and to treat them with respect even though they may make me mad some times.  I realized, after reading the book, that I should always treat them with respect and honor them.  Now chapter nine was about forgiveness and when someone gets me mad, I usually never forgive them, but when I read the book it said if I don’t forgive, God won’t forgive me.  So now I know that I must forgive.”   

16 year old Payten from Texas said, “I fell in love with Uh-Uh, Daughter, Don’t Even Go There after I read it.  My mom wanted me to read the book, but I refused to because I thought it was another book telling her how to discipline me.  Me and my mom have been going through some hard times and I felt like she didn’t like me, just as you thought about your mom.  When she told me to read it, I straight up told her NO.  She didn’t say anything to me again about the book.  Then one day while I was waiting for her in the car while she shopped, I  noticed the book and picked it up and was drawn in after reading the first chapter, “Don’t Allow Makeup to Create a Different You” spoke to me.  Prior to reading the book, I saw myself falling in a trap and I asked God to help me with it.  Then He answered my prayer and sent you (well your book - LOL).    After reading your book, many of my questions were answered that I couldn’t go to my mom with.  I can truly see God makes a way for everything.  I just had to let you know that this book positively and greatly affected me and I thank you for it.” 

Blue Ink Review

“Uh-Uh, Daughter, Don’t Even Go There is basic and sound advice.  But is it effective?  Yes and no.  Hatcher-Jones’ writing voice is caring and reflective.  For girls familiar with preaching-as-teaching, the booklet—with its Bible scriptures, prayers, and discussion questions – will feel familiar and wise.  For non-churched girls, however, the author’s style may feel didactic and preachy, more a turn-off than help.  Still, to her credit, Hatcher-Jones gives this brief life guide her all.  With such passion, if only one girl heeds her sermons, she will make a difference.”
