Book Synopsis The Perfect Parents Handbook by : Jennifer Conlin
Download or read book The Perfect Parents Handbook written by Jennifer Conlin and published by St. Martin's Griffin. This book was released on 2013-09-24 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With a classification system that has every parenting style down to a 't', The Perfect Parents Handbook is unputdownable reading for anyone who's ever forked over major three figures for the "must have" stroller or agonized over what their children's school says about them as parents. The real facts and details in this book gently skewer modern mothers and fathers and will at the same time delight them with dead-on accuracy in describing the habits and accouterments of nine types, including: --The Neo-Trads: Dad makes the cupcakes and kids' artwork is everywhere (not just on the fridge); the family's taste always exceeds its wallet --The Martyr Parents: They've sacrificed so much for the kids that the kids have taken over the asylum --The Power Parents: The IV sessions that led to triplets were coordinated on mom and dad's Blackberries and the real British nanny swabs the babies' Burberry button-downs on the way to their five bedroom Park Avenue apartment --The Classic Parents: Everybody's in LL Bean and their 2.3 children all climb into a little red wagon to get to the SUV Laced with titillating facts about our child-centric culture (unique baby announcements! nursery decorators! mandatory volunteering at preschool!), The Perfect Parents Handbook decodes the complex and terrifying (smothering doulas! educational vacations to the rainforest!) world of raising kids.,
Book Synopsis Heaven on Earth by : Sharifa Oppenheimer
Download or read book Heaven on Earth written by Sharifa Oppenheimer and published by SteinerBooks. This book was released on 2006-08 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 6 lectures and an essay, 1919-1920 (CW 297) World War I destroyed the structures, values, and self-confidence that created the seeming greatness of the nineteenth century. In its place stood ruins and the shards of a civilization. In response to this, Emil Molt--the director of the Waldorf-Astoria Cigarette Factory and a student of Rudolf Steiner--decided to establish a school to educate people who could create a new culture. Thus, the Waldorf school movement was begun. Rudolf Steiner agreed to act as the school's consultant, and his insights guided the school in accomplishing this ambitious task. The goal of this education was that, through living inner work guided by the insights of Rudolf Steiner, the teachers would develop in the children such power of thought, depth of feeling, and strength of will that they would emerge from their school years as full members of the human community, able to meet and transform the world. These lectures occurred around the opening of the first Waldorf school. They serve as an excellent, inspiring introduction to Waldorf education as a whole. Here Steiner outlines--with freshness, immediacy, and excitement--the goals and intentions of a new form of education and speaks to parents of prospective students. He explains the school's guiding principles and describes how parents must participate, with understanding and interest, in the awakening of their children's creative forces so that a healthier society can come about. German sources: Die Waldorfschule und ihr Geist (GA 297); "Die pädagogische Zielsetzung der Waldorfschule in Stuttgart," from Soziale Zukunft, Feb. 1920 (GA 24).

Book Synopsis A Handbook for Parents in Ministry by : Dorothy Kelley Patterson
Download or read book A Handbook for Parents in Ministry written by Dorothy Kelley Patterson and published by B&H Publishing Group. This book was released on 2004 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The pressure the vocational ministry family feels is often unfair -- not only for the parents but also the children. People set up expectations that place undue pressures for ministry parents to always be perfect and ministry children to always behave appropriately -- or at least to the expectations of those who would stand in judgment. Dorothy Patterson and her son Armour know too well what it is like to live in a fish bowl. As an experienced ministry parent and an experienced "PK," they have lived through it. A Handbook for Parents in Ministry offers their experience and advice to help any ministry family survive and flourish during the child rearing years and beyond. With an emphasis on biblical principles. Dorothy and Armour are able to speak definitively with timely and authoritative applications. A Handbook for Parents in Ministry is for a ministry parent to read and get a vision of what God intended the responsibility of godly parents in ministry to be -- how parenting fits into the ministry call. Book jacket.

For too long, these kids have fallen through the cracks. This book provides key information on how to best support neurodivergent children by leveraging their strengths while supporting their struggles.

""Feelings of worth can flourish only in an atmosphere where individual differences are appreciated, mistakes are tolerated, communication is open, and rules are flexible - the kind of atmosphere found in a nurturing family."" - Virginia Satir, Family Therapist Parenting is not an idea, a concept or a belief. It's a process and therefore is neither static nor fixed in time that results in something special being created. Your activities and responsibilities as a parent evolve with your children, taking into account their needs - physical, social, emotional and intellectual - and your ability to be aware of and to meet these needs. As an effective parent, you help your children overcome perceived limitations to do their best and to be a valued member of the family. All the while, you bump up against your own limitations - many of your own making. "Parents' Handbook: NLP & Common Sense Guide for Family Well-Being" provides you with tools, techniques, insights and approaches to improve the way you communicate, to be available emotionally and physically and to successfully fulfill the different roles expected of you as a parent. By the time you finish the "Parents' Handbook," you will have discovered how to: Have meaningful, supportive conversations with your partner and children. Address beliefs or habits that get in the way of being an effective parent. Help your children address beliefs or habits that limit them. Support yourself and family members in achieving your respective dreams. Fulfill the six primary parenting roles essential for the well-being of your children. Support your children in learning effectively at school and at home. Although written for parents, the material is presented at a level older teens can understand and use. With the aid of their parents, younger teens will also find most concepts in this book useful. This book draws on an area of personal development called neuro-linguistic programming (NLP). NLP has helped hundreds of thousands discover their own potential and live the lives they desire. Make it the difference that makes a difference for your family.
