Book excerpt: When my son got locked up November 2013 it was an experience most of you can relate to so well. For 2 years while he was in county jail waiting for his sentence I was in total shock. The idea of my son doing life in prison was a huge blur to me. I tried to find the words of how I felt and I couldn't fit the description with anything other than words like: helpless, broken, shocked, numb, heart broke, pain, my heart literally felt as if it had physically been ripped from my chest. Like when you get a really bad cut and nothing will sooth it, my heart was cut, not in two, not even in three, it was shattered in a million pieces fragmented into something that could never be the same. Never feel the same, never live the same, life would never be as it was. I had to learn as a mother, wife, and loved one to so many others that I had no other choice but to pick up the pieces that have been broken and put them back together one by one. This book will tell stories of mothers that have fought hard to keep going after their child was incarcerated, it will also help others to understand more about the journey we live as mothers of incarcerated sons.

Book Synopsis Shattered Bonds by : Dorothy Roberts
Download or read book Shattered Bonds written by Dorothy Roberts and published by Civitas Books. This book was released on 2009-02-23 with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of foster care in the United States is the story of the failure of the social safety net to aid poor, largely black, parents in their attempt to make a home for their children. Shattered Bonds tells this story as no other book has before -- from the perspective of a prominent black, female legal theoretician. The current state of the child-welfare system in America is a well-known tragedy. Thousands of children every year are removed from their parents' homes, often for little reason other than the endemic poverty that afflicts women and children more than any other group in the United States. Dorothy Roberts, an acclaimed legal scholar and social critic, reveals the racial politics of child welfare in America through extensive legal research and original interviews with Chicago families in the foster care system. She describes the racial imbalance in foster care, the concentration of state intervention in certain neighborhoods, the alarming percentages of children in substitute care, the difficulty that poor and black families have in meeting state's standards for regaining custody of children placed in foster care, and the relationship between state supervision of families and continuing racial inequality.

Book excerpt: Over 100,000 copies sold! Coming Out, Then Coming Home Christopher Yuan, the son of Chinese immigrants, discovered at an early age that he was different. He was attracted to other boys. As he grew into adulthood, his mother, Angela, hoped to control the situation. Instead, she found that her son and her life were spiraling out of control—and her own personal demons were determined to defeat her. Years of heartbreak, confusion, and prayer followed before the Yuans found a place of complete surrender, which is God’s desire for all families. Their amazing story, told from the perspectives of both mother and son, offers hope for anyone affected by homosexuality. God calls all who are lost to come home to him. Casting a compelling vision for holy sexuality, Out of a Far Country speaks to prodigals, parents of prodigals, and those wanting to minister to the gay community. “But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and felt compassion, and ran and embraced him and kissed him.” - Luke 15:20 Includes a discussion guide for personal reflection and group use.

Book excerpt: A deeply personal and inspiring memoir recounting one woman’s struggles—beginning with her birth in prison—to find self-acceptance Prison Baby is a revised and substantially expanded version of Deborah Jiang Stein’s self-published memoir, Even Tough Girls Wear Tutus. Even at twelve years old, Deborah, the adopted daughter of a progressive Jewish couple in Seattle, felt like an outsider. Her mixed Asian features set her apart from her white, well-intentioned parents who evaded questions about her past. But when she discovered a letter revealing the truth of her prison birth to a heroin-addicted mother—and that she spent the first year of life in prison—Deborah spiraled into emotional lockdown. For years she turned to drugs, violence, and crime as a way to cope with her grief. Ultimately, Deborah overcame the stigma, shame, and secrecy of her birth, and found peace by helping others—proving that redemption and acceptance are possible even from the darkest corners.
