        Becoming a mother

        An Australian history

        by Carla Pascoe Leahy

        Becoming a mother charts the diverse and complex history of Australian mothering for the first time, exposing the ways it has been both connected to and distinct from parallel developments in other industrialised societies. In many respects, the historical context in which Australian women come to motherhood has changed dramatically since 1945. And yet examination of the memories of multiple maternal generations reveals surprising continuities in the emotions and experiences of first-time motherhood. Drawing upon interdisciplinary insights from anthropology, history, psychology and sociology, Carla Pascoe Leahy unpacks this multifaceted rite of passage through more than 60 oral history interviews, demonstrating how maternal memories continue to influence motherhood today. Despite radical shifts in understandings of gender, care and subjectivity, becoming a mother remains one of the most personally and culturally significant moments in a woman's life.

        Take it easy and raise it slowly

        by Yao Li

        This is a parenting handbook for educating people who have experienced the whole process. The author’s career path runs through pre-school education, compulsory education, and high school teaching and research. She uses a relaxed and humorous language to explain the various situations she encountered in the process of raising her daughter; the vertical and long-term retrospect and the horizontal open reference Staggered, so that the spicy and humorous writing and the deep and flexible thinking are reflected. In the book, the author expresses the view that "not good and unsuccessful will not prevent the child from becoming a happy, sober, self-sufficient person", and believes that "in the absence of material and glory, one can still live steadily Well, this is the great wisdom of life." There is no boring preaching in the book, some are real experiences and typical cases of raising children. The text in the book contains not only the smiles and tears that make parents empathetic, but also the personal analysis and comments of children who are educated. When reading, people can't help but laugh; when aftertaste, people nod and realize.

        Fearless Parenting Makes Confident Kids

        by Shulamit Blank & Orly Fuchs-Shabtai

        Fearless Parenting is about parental authority in modern timesand its pivotal role in raising self-reliant, compassionate, and ethical children, and in preventing behavioral and even severe psychiatric disorders.   The last generation witnessed a backlash against disciplining children. We as parents are told to engage in negotiation with our kids about their behavior. We are afraid to be tough with them in case they won't love us or worse—break down. As a result, families today face severe behavior problems at earlier ages, and parents throw up their hands in resignation. The main theme and objective of this book is to prove that setting and enforcing reasonable and appropriate boundaries, combined with learning and education, could save parents' relationships with their kids and literally save children’s lives.   The book is unique in that it presents in a direct, simple, and yet profound way, real case studies and situations commonly encountered, along with severe cases of drug abuse, delinquencies, and mental disturbances. All cases are shown to respond very well to authority and boundaries adjusted to the specific situation and behavior. The book contains numerous references to professional material for the more advanced reader and derives inspiration from ancient philosophers and religious thinkers.   Shulamit Blank, M.D, is a pediatrician and psychiatrist, specializing in child and adolescent behavioral disturbances. Dr. Blank is the founder and, since 1993, CEO of a community-based educational and treatment facility in Israel for children and adolescents with severe psychiatric and behavioral disorders, in which she is successfully implementing her methods, preventing psychiatric hospitalization and incarceration, and minimizing the use of psychiatric drugs through teaching and education adjusted to the child's specific problems, such as ADHD, learning disabilities, etc. Due to her breakthrough approach, Dr. Blank is well-recognized and fully involved in the professional community worldwide. Dr. Blank has three children and seven grandchildren and resides with her spouse near Tel Aviv.   Orly Fuchs-Shabtai is a clinical psychologist. In 2006 she established a national program for the prevention of child violence. There are about thirty-five counselors from the therapeutic field in the program, which provides counseling to hundreds of families each year and to teachers of preschool through elementary school. Fuchs-Shabtai is the mother of three grown-up children and lives in Tel Aviv.   The authors strive to follow the ancient wisdom of the biblical aphorism: "Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it" (Proverbs 22:6).   An English-Language eBook  was published in fall 2014 by Samuel Wachtman's Sons, Inc., CA.

        Fearless Parenting

        by Shulamit Blank & Orli Fuchs-Shabtai

        "Fearless Parenting" porte sur l'autorité parentale dans les temps modernes et sur son rôle essentiel dans l'éducation d’enfants autonomes, compatissants et vertueux et la prévention des troubles du comportement et, parfois, de graves troubles psychiatriques.La dernière génération a connu un contrecoup dans la discipline des enfants. Or, en tant que parents, nous devons discuter avec nos enfants de leur comportement. Nous évitons d'être durs avec eux de peur qu'ils nous privent de leur amour ou pire - qu'ils s'effondrent. Par conséquent, les familles d'aujourd'hui font face à de graves troubles du comportement à un âge plus précoce et les parents baissent les bras en signe d’abandon. Le thème principal et l'objectif de ce livre consistent à prouver que la création et l'application de limites raisonnables et appropriées, liées à l'instruction et à l'éducation, pourraient remédier aux relations parents/enfants et, à proprement parler, sauver la vie des enfants.Ce livre est unique dans la mesure où il présente de façon directe, simple et cependant profonde des études de cas réels et des situations fréquemment rencontrées, ainsi que des cas graves de toxicomanie, de délinquance et de troubles psychiques. Le traitement de tous ces cas présente une réaction positive à l'autorité et aux limites adaptées à la situation et au comportement spécifiques. Cet ouvrage contient de nombreuses références à la vie professionnelle pour le lecteur confirmé et s'inspire d'anciens philosophes et penseurs religieux.À propos des auteursShulamit Blank, docteure en médecine, est pédiatre et psychiatre spécialisée dans les troubles du comportement des enfants et des adolescents.En Israël, le Dr Blank est fondatrice et, depuis 1993, directrice générale d'un centre communautaire d’enseignement et de traitement des enfants et adolescents atteints de graves troubles psychiatriques et du comportement. C’est dans ce centre qu’elle parvient à appliquer ses méthodes en limitant l'hospitalisation et l'incarcération psychiatriques et en minimisant l'utilisation de médicaments psychiatriques grâce à une éducation et un enseignement adaptés aux problèmes spécifiques de l'enfant, que ce soient le TDAH, les troubles d'étude, etc.Orli Fuchs-Shabtai, est psychologue clinicienne. Elle a travaillé comme psychothérapeute pour adultes et dirige actuellement un programme national de prévention de la violence infantile.Les auteurs s'efforcent de suivre la sagesse antique de l'aphorisme biblique : « Instruis l'enfant selon la voie qu'il doit suivre; Et quand il sera vieux, il ne s'en détournera pas » (Proverbes 22:6).

        Conscious Feelings

        Living Life Closer to Your Own Truth

        by Clinton Callahan

        This book is about feelings, and the ways that we, as individuals and as a culture, have numbed ourselves against them. It is about unleashing the possibility of conscious feelings to re-make our lives into what really matters to us. The central framework of the book is built with the Ten Distinctions for Consciously Feeling, including: *Learning the potent difference between thoughts and feelings, which most people confuse *Sorting out feelings (based in the present) from emotions (based in the past or in somebody else’s life) *Fully allowing that feelings are absolutely-neutral energy and information, neither good nor bad, neither positive nor negative. Each chapter is enriched with Thoughtmaps—clear diagrams of ways we presently think and ways we could possibly think—and supported by an abundance of practical experiments to try. The Power of Conscious Feelings is so much more than a book of selfhelp or inspiration. Ultimately, it is about our connection with and responsibility for the fate of the Earth.

        by Mei Zihan

        The naughty little boy, Dai Doudou, is often told to keep quiet by his mother when he's being too noisy. He's told to keep quiet while eating, while walking, and even when bouncing a ball...and so it was that Dai Doudou decided to become a gentle, quiet little mouse, free to roam around wherever he pleased. His father agreed to the idea, and himself decided to turn into a mouse. In the end, even his mother, who wanted everyone to “keep quiet”, turns into a mouse. The book employs gentle humour to describe a child's escape from a stifling family life into the realm of imagination; looking at modern, everyday problems through a lens of fantasy and illusion.

        by L. Jäncke

Using insightful experiments and the latest research results, including many examples, this book presents the reader what an incredibly impressive thinking organ the brain actually is – even if it is not a purely “rational machine”.   Target Group: For people interested in the results of research into the workings of the brain in the areas of decision-making, memory, and consciousness.
