By facing some of life’s greatest challenges with patient faith, the courage to self-advocate, and a willingness to learn, she allowed herself to be transformed, to grow and change, to finally grieve the loss of her father, and come out the other side with a stronger sense of self and the answers she’d been looking.

saying goodbye to daycare provider: Raising Human Beings Ross W. Greene, 2016-08-09 In Raising Human Beings, the renowned child psychologist and New York Times bestselling author of Lost at School and The Explosive Child explains how to cultivate a better parent-child relationship while also nurturing empathy, honesty, resilience, and independence. Parents have an important task: figure out who their child is—his or her skills, preferences, beliefs, values, personality traits, goals, and direction—get comfortable with it, and then help him or her pursue and live a life that is congruent with it. But parents also want to have influence. They want their kid to be independent, but not if he or she is going to make bad choices. They don’t want to be harsh and rigid, but nor do they want a noncompliant, disrespectful kid. They want to avoid being too pushy and overbearing, but not if an unmotivated, apathetic kid is what they have to show for it. They want to have a good relationship with their kids, but not if that means being a pushover. They don’t want to scream, but they do want to be heard. Good parenting is about striking the balance between a child’s characteristics and a parent’s desire to have influence. Now Dr. Ross Greene offers a detailed and practical guide for raising kids in a way that enhances relationships, improves communication, and helps kids learn how to resolve disagreements without conflict. Through his well-known model of solving problems collaboratively, parents can forgo time-out and sticker charts, stop badgering, berating, threatening, and punishing, allow their kids to feel heard and validated, and have influence. From homework to hygiene, curfews, to screen time, Raising Human Beings arms parents with the tools they need to raise kids in ways that are non-punitive and non-adversarial and that brings out the best in both parent and child. |
saying goodbye to daycare provider: Domestic Extremist Peachy Keenan, 2023-06-06 Spot-on, often satirical, always insightful, contributing editor of The American Mind and mother of a brood, Peachy Keenan argues that the only way we can save our families, ourselves, and the world—even California!—is by embracing our inner domestic extremists, and sweeping failed notions of third wave feminism and identity politics nonsense into the garbage can of history. In This House We Believe Parents Are the Bosses of Their Kids Babies Are Good, More Babies Are Better Two Sexes Are Plenty Your Career Is Overrated Feminism Is How the Unpopular and Undateable Cope with Life Mainstream American Culture Destroys Families We Are Going to Win We’re in a culture war, and Peachy Keenan is not taking prisoners. This raucous new book is her rallying cry for normal people stuck in the foxholes and appalled by the status quo. Mothers and fathers, regular American families, men and women, can win this battle together. But a lot of ground has been lost. For decades, we stood around and watched as feminists and progressives steamrolled through our institutions— those formerly robust, now comically inept, pillars of civilization like our government, our schools, and, crucially, our families. With matchless insight and devastating humor, Peachy Keenan makes the case for domestic extremism—turning away from the diseased offerings of the elites, the media, Hollywood, your child’s school, and Big Tech, and embracing a more human way of life. The life-changing magic of domestic extremism will spark joy and help you build a legacy that will enrich the lives of your (many) descendants. |

saying goodbye to daycare provider: Running Toward Stillness Stephen Legault, 2013-09-25 In 2006 Stephen Legault experienced a period of tremendous upheaval, the result of bad decisions and a lifetime of anger and fear that left him in a deep depression, struggling to come to terms with the choices he had made. While running on a sun-dappled trail around Victoria’s iconic Mount Doug he realized that, like so many other people, he felt alone and afraid and was suffering, and that he had to do something about it. Having been toying with meditation for years and studying the teaching of the Buddha since he was a teenager, Stephen decided to address his suffering by dedicating himself more fully to a spiritual practice. One half of that practice was sitting still in meditation. The other half was running up and over southern Vancouver Island’s rocky domes of arbutus and Garry oak. Illustrated throughout with colour photographs highlighting the tranquil beauty of India, the American Southwest, Canada’s West Coast and the wild landscapes of the Rocky Mountains, Running Toward Stillness is an invitation to run through the woods, along the seashore and on mountain trails in order to experience moments of sublime delight, to share the imperfect insights gained on the trail and while sitting in meditation, and to learn that while we all suffer, we can learn to understand the root of our suffering. Most importantly, we can share the knowledge that there is an end to suffering, that this wonderful gift can be ours and that we are one part of nature moving through the rest of creation. |
saying goodbye to daycare provider: Hurtful Husband, Harmful Dad Elle Walks, 2025-04-04 Hurtful Husband, Harmful Dad: Leaving is Complicated is a cautionary self-help book which illustrates how it feels to be ensnared in an emotionally abusive relationship. From her own lived experience, author Elle Walks identifies the precursors to emotional abuse and details the complexities of safely escaping with her children—as a woman, she could stay with him; but as a mother, leaving was essential. Each informative chapter includes important takeaways, narratives of actual events, and lessons learned. Readers will witness a woman’s difficult journey from devoted wife to helpless victim—and her ultimate transformation into a powerful advocate for herself and her children. Hurtful Husband, Harmful Dad provides a first-hand account of the overwhelming feelings of guilt and shame, discovering the cycle of abuse, asking for change, setting boundaries, and weighing the risks of protecting herself and her children while in and out of the marriage. Elle faced two major battles: first, to shield her children from the abusive parent and an unsupportive family court system, and second, to break free from a partner who wielded significant community influence, wealth, and determination to destroy her. She reveals how it feels to lose your health, question your sanity, and blame yourself while living in a constant fight-or-flight state. Staying with her husband meant watching her children suffer and condemning them to a lifetime of abuse, first from their dad, and highly likely next from their partner. Her inner voice started as a whisper, grew louder each day, and eventually screamed, “I cannot be married to him anymore!” |

Solomon, 2024-01-04 The loss of a loved one can be very painful, with the mourner losing an important source of safety, connection, and life balance. Even when uncomplicated, bereavement can have a significant impact on the mourner. Traumatic circumstances can intensify the grief and complicate the mourning process. EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy, an evidenced based treatment for trauma, can help process the trauma of the loss and the obstacles that interfere with the grief and mourning process.

Solomon guides the EDMR therapist through the treatment process by understanding grief reactions and the mourning process, providing an overall model of EMDR treatment for grief and mourning, and highlighting how EMDR can help a mourner experience a positive sense of connection through heartfelt, meaningful memories. The author presents an integrative model for EMDR therapy treatment based on the Adaptive Information Processing Model (AIP), which guides EMDR therapy. Several models of grief and mourning that inform EMDR treatment and a discussion of the eight phases and three prongs (past, present, and future) of EMDR therapy are presented, with many case examples including transcripts of sessions, to illustrate treatment principles and clinical teaching points. |

saying goodbye to daycare provider: Reframing the Emotional Worlds of the Early Childhood Classroom Samara Madrid, David Fernie, Rebecca Kantor, 2014-10-30 This volume examines the emotional world of the early childhood classroom as it affects young children (whose emotional wellbeing is crucial to successful learning), educators (for whom teaching is never a solely cognitive act), parents, and administrators. In a culture where issues such as bullying and teacher burnout comprise major challenges to student success, this book brings together diverse voices (researchers, practitioners, children, and parents) and multiple perspectives (theoretical and personal) to refocus attention on the pivotal role of emotion in schools. To do so, editors Samara Madrid, David Fernie, and Rebecca Kantor envision emotion as a dynamic, fluid, and negotiated construct, performed and produced in the daily lives of children and adults alike. A nuanced yet cohesive analysis, Reframing the Emotional Worlds of the Early Childhood Classroom thus presents a challenge to the overriding concern with quantifiable classroom achievement that increasingly threatens to push the emotional lives of classroom participants to the margins of educational and public discourse. |

saying goodbye to daycare provider: THE ABDUCTION Darrell Brantley, 2025-03-11 The Abduction is the true story of a mother's quest to rescue her child from a parental kidnapping told from the point of view of one of the lawyers who represented her in the legal battle to regain custody. Unfortunately, the legal system proved ineffective in preventing the kidnapping and grossly deficient in mitigating the harmful effects of the abduction on the child. Interwoven with many of the challenges facing the legal/political system in a post-truth era, the story ends in a tragedy that should have been foreseen and possibly prevented and illuminates the devastating consequences of the systemic failures that produced such an unacceptable outcome. This account of a mother's protracted battle with the legal system submits the need to rethink the legal analysis of and response to cases in which domestic violence and parental alienation are alleged, including the proper role of judges, hearing officers, lawyers, guardians ad litem, counselors, social workers, and child support agencies in these difficult cases. |

Part narrative and part practical guide, Dragonfly provides anecdotal and practical guidance for parents of children with autism spectrum disorder. The author discusses intervention strategies, therapies such as Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA), and different medical tests. She explains Autism terminology like hyperresponsivesness and stimming. A classroom teacher herself, she recommends educational accommodations and supports. Busy parents can find practical tips on everything from making friends to Sensory Processing Disorder in helpful sidebars in the text. Taylor's personal experience is supplemented by wisdom from a series of round table discussions featuring other parents of children with autism. In the summer of 2013, eight-year-old Hannah wrote Life of a Dragonfly, a poem with repeated parallel stanzas that used the stages of a dragonfly's life as a mirror for her own physical and cognitive development. Among its wisdom was: Hope rises, and I begin to reveal my concealed wings. I begin to understand language and what I am meant to do. Taylor has helped her daughter find her wings; in Dragonfly, she gives other parents the tools to do the same. |
