Download or read book Hurrah for Gin written by Katie Kirby and published by Quercus. This book was released on 2017-11-28 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The perfect gift, this book is not a how-to guide. It won't tell you how to get your baby to sleep, how to deal with toddler tantrums, how to be a good parent, a cool parent, or even a renegade parent. It's a book about parenting that contains absolutely no useful advice whatsoever. Instead, Hurrah for Gin shares beautifully honest anecdotes and illustrations from the parenting front line that demonstrate it is perfectly possible to love your children with the whole of your heart while finding them incredibly irritating at the same time. From pregnancy to starting school, Hurrah for Gin takes you through the exciting, frustrating, infuriating, and wonderful whirlwind of parenthood, offering solidarity and a friendly hug after a tough day. Best served with gin.

Book Synopsis Parenting with Heart by : Stephen James
Download or read book Parenting with Heart written by Stephen James and published by Revell. This book was released on 2018-10-16 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parents want to be the best person they can for their children, but much of the time they may feel like giraffes on ice--clumsy, unprepared, and in imminent danger of going down. The good news is, our children don't need perfect parents. They need authentic, fully-hearted, relationally engaged parents who can mess up and move on more than parents who always get it right. In this freeing book, respected therapists and bestselling authors Stephen James and Chip Dodd invite parents to let go of perfectionism and micromanaging as they learn to parent from a place of emotional honesty and intimacy. Through their clinical experience and relatable true stories, they show parents that raising children to become capable, loving, and wise-hearted adults is far more about accepting our flaws than projecting an impossible standard to our children that we already know we can't live up to. Parents will learn how to resolve issues from their own childhoods, tune into their feelings and the emotions of their children, and be present with their families through both the best and worst of circumstances.
Book Synopsis Parenting Tips for Imperfect Parents by : Joseph Wong
Download or read book Parenting Tips for Imperfect Parents written by Joseph Wong and published by Joseph Wong. This book was released on 2024-10-18 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is no one-size-fits-all parenting bible. Parenting is something we need to constantly adjust as our child grows, no matter if we have a plan or not. And the chief reason we keep adjusting and adapting is that every child is unique and the most effective way to ensure they are reared and nurtured the way they deserve is when parents give their best into understanding what their children are good at, help them realise their potential and then fulfil their purpose in life. In this book, Joseph and Sharon share many of their own experiences as parents themselves and entreat all parents to be perfect parents for their children without being perfect themselves. They do this by talking about what they did well and also the mistakes they made so that parents reading this book can learn from them. They invite all parents to make becoming the perfect parent a journey…a work-in-progress… so that, like them, every parent can constantly adjust and adapt to new discoveries about their children. This book offers many perspectives about parenting – all what Joseph and Sharon have been through themselves – that parents everywhere can use or at least try, if the situation fits. Because every child is different, even twins, parents need all the help they can get to make the most appropriate decisions regarding their children. Parenting is not easy but it is a noble calling. Our children deserve our very best. This book hopefully helps all parents become the perfect parent…one day.
Book Synopsis The Imperfect Parent by : Kate Hamilton
Download or read book The Imperfect Parent written by Kate Hamilton and published by Greenleaf Book Group. This book was released on 2024-10-01 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A judgment-free handbook on parenting kids in all their uniqueness We all want to raise independent, confident children, but unfortunately, there’s no one right way to parent that we can all learn. Each child is unique, and each mom and dad has their own ideas on parenting, often influenced by the way they were raised. The Imperfect Parent shows us how we can celebrate those differences, embracing the individuality of our kids, carrying on the successful practices our parents demonstrated, and learning from their—and our—mistakes. A mom of two boys, author Kate Hamilton is no stranger to parenting struggles, and she knows well that anyone who thinks they can parent error-free is just kidding themselves. This book is an honest look at her parenting triumphs and failures and what parents everywhere can learn from both. She explains: • How to handle parenting advice from others • How to communicate well with your partner or co-parent • How to help your children discover their identities • How to have conversations with your kids about uncomfortable topics • How to let your children fail And that just scratches the surface! Recognizing that there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to raising kids, The Imperfect Parent teaches you how to forge a path that works best for your family.
Book Synopsis Raising a Modern-Day Knight by : Robert Lewis
Download or read book Raising a Modern-Day Knight written by Robert Lewis and published by Tyndale House Publishers, Inc.. This book was released on 2011-09-06 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does it mean to be a man? Moreover, how do you as a father instill that reality in your son? By Raising a Modern-Day Knight. The medieval custom of knighthood offers a unique approach to shaping a boy into a strong, godly man. Centuries ago, select boys went through a rigorous, years-long process of clearly defined objectives, goals, and ceremonies—with the hope of achieving knighthood. Along the way, they acquired a boldly masculine vision, an uncompromising code of conduct, and a noble cause in which to invest their lives. They were the heroes of their age. In much the same way, Raising a Modern-Day Knight will show how you, too, can confidently guide your son to the kind of authentic, biblical manhood that can change out world. Complete with ceremony ideas to celebrate accomplishments and ingrain them in the mind of a knight-in-training, this resource is as insightful as it is practical in raising a boy to be a chivalrous, godly man.
Book Synopsis When Are You Coming Home? by : Hilary Cuthrell
Download or read book When Are You Coming Home? written by Hilary Cuthrell and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2023-03-17 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the United States approaches its 50th year of mass incarceration, more children than ever before have experienced the incarceration of a parent. The vast majority of incarceration occurs in locally operated jails and disproportionately impacts families of color, those experiencing poverty, and rural households. However, we are only beginning to understand the various ways in which children cope with the incarceration of a parent – particularly the coping of young children who are most at risk for the adversity and also the most detrimentally impacted. When Are You Coming Home? helps answer questions about how young ones are faring when a parent is incarcerated in jail. Situated within a resilience model of development, the book presents findings related to children’s stress, family relationships, health, home environments, and visit experiences through the eyes of the children and families. This humanizing, social justice-oriented approach discusses the paramount need to support children and their families before, during, and after a parent’s incarceration while the country simultaneously grapples with strategies of reform and decarceration.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: AUTHORS’ DISCLAIMER: We are not in any way experts on parenting children with disabilities. Our goal is simply to share strategies that have worked for each of us in the event it may help those in a similar situation.

This refreshingly frank book, which will alternately make you want to tear your hair out and laugh your head off, should be required reading for parents of disabled children. Shut Up About Your Perfect Kid provides wise and funny advice about how to: • Find a support group—either online or in your community • Ensure that your child gets the right in-school support • Deal with people—be they friends, family members, or strangers—who say or do insensitive things to you or your child • Find fun, safe, and inclusive extracurricular activities for your child • Battle your own grief and seek professional help if you need it • Keep the rest of the family intact in moments of crisis

Working from a place of grace and compassion, she encourages us to explore how our history, thoughts, and assumptions impact our parenting decisions. Moving away from traditional discipline strategies, Schwarz focuses on the importance of having a calm brain, connected relationships, respectful conversations, and a coaching mindset with our kids. It Starts with You lays out a five-step process you can turn to whenever you're stuck in a difficult parenting situation. Each step is grounded in research and presented in a way that is easy to understand. Rather than adding unnecessary pressure, we learn that kids do not need perfect parents, but parents who are willing to learn, grow, and move forward with them in a positive direction.
Book Synopsis Conquering Containment by : Toni Glymph - Martin
Download or read book Conquering Containment written by Toni Glymph - Martin and published by Covenant Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2018-08-14 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Containment is based on lies. For twenty-five years I accepted lies about how a Christian wife should respond to an abusive husband. For twenty-five years, I prayed, complied, and cried. For twenty-five years I was beaten down emotionally until I finally accepted the lies that I was unacceptable and undeserving of respect. On Wednesday, January 14, 2004, truth came and the lies were exposed. Truth gave me the strength to stand. Truth set me free. If you do not know the truth, you cannot fathom how much God loves you. If you do not know the truth, you cannot comprehend your value or the enormous price paid to redeem you. If you do not know the truth, you will believe the lie that you possess little value, that it is OK for you to be mistreated, that you deserve neglect and that it is OK to be controlled, manipulated, beaten, or abused. If you do not know the truth you cannot stand. This book will offer you truth and challenge you to stand. This book will expose Satan's scheme to contain you. It was his plan all along. He knows your potential is still 100 percent intact. He knows what will happen when truth comes to set you free. I pray the truths in this book will set you free and give you the strength to stand.
Book Synopsis Inspirations for Today by : Dorothea Erdmuth Lotze-Kola
Download or read book Inspirations for Today written by Dorothea Erdmuth Lotze-Kola and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2018-09-27 with total page 706 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life can be overwhelming. Life can even leave us raw and broken, both spiritually and physically. And as Christians, we may often wonder how God is present in our personal and global world. Yet God is there for us, even in these moments of brokenness and struggle. In Inspirations for Today, author Dorothea Erdmuth Lotze-Kola responds to the pressures of the world with a heartfelt daily devotional that you can use to find inspiration in prayer and meditation. Offering biblical verses and quotes of wisdom from noted authors, poets, activists, and world dignitaries, Dorothea engages in a daily dialogue where she shares her perspective on faith and life as a marriage and family therapist, as a pastor, and as a wife and a mother with teenaged girls. It can be hard for Christians to engage with today’s world—especially when they feel doubt about God’s presence in their lives. But with daily reflection on God’s Word and time set aside for spiritual meditation, you too can be reminded, each and every day, that God is with you and that he is working in the world as the Holy Spirit.
Download or read book My Fat Dad written by Dawn Lerman and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2015-09-29 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the author of the New York Times Well Blog series, My Fat Dad Every story and every memory from my childhood is attached to food… Dawn Lerman spent her childhood constantly hungry. She craved good food as her father, 450 pounds at his heaviest, pursued endless fad diets, from Atkins to Pritikin to all sorts of freeze-dried, saccharin-laced concoctions, and insisted the family do the same—even though no one else was overweight. Dawn’s mother, on the other hand, could barely be bothered to eat a can of tuna over the sink. She was too busy ferrying her other daughter to acting auditions and scolding Dawn for cleaning the house (“Whom are you trying to impress?”). It was chaotic and lonely, but Dawn had someone she could turn to: her grandmother Beauty. Those days spent with Beauty, learning to cook, breathing in the scents of fresh dill or sharing the comfort of a warm pot of chicken soup, made it all bearable. Even after Dawn’s father took a prestigious ad job in New York City and moved the family away, Beauty would send a card from Chicago every week—with a recipe, a shopping list, and a twenty-dollar bill. She continued to cultivate Dawn’s love of wholesome food, and ultimately taught her how to make her own way in the world—one recipe at a time. In My Fat Dad, Dawn reflects on her colorful family and culinary-centric upbringing, and how food shaped her connection to her family, her Jewish heritage, and herself. Humorous and compassionate, this memoir is an ode to the incomparable satisfaction that comes with feeding the ones you love.
