Family Self Help

If we're honest with ourselves, almost every mom knows she can go from being kind to cranky in no time flat. When we're tired, busy, anxious, preoccupied - okay, so anytime, really - we tend to default to snapping and barking at the people we love best. But life doesn't have to be this way. Through coaching other moms who share a desire to be a kinder, gentler parent, Becky Kopitzke has learned the keys to taming the "momster" in all of us.

No Better Mom for the Job is for any mom who has ever felt inadequate - who loves her kids fiercely but sometimes thinks another mom would do a better job in her shoes. Becky Keife knows the ups and downs of motherhood. And she has learned along the way and from other mamas that it doesn't work to try to do more or be better. Confidence comes from leaning on the One who made you a mother.

Cutting. It’s become a buzzword lately, but very few books address it from the perspective of a youth worker or concerned friend. Marv Penner has lived in this world for the past few years, talking with teenagers online and meeting with them to understand what drives them and why they self-injure. In this timely and helpful book, youth workers, coaches, teachers, and others will get the information they need to begin to understand and help (or point to help) kids who cut.

ADHD can be a weakness or a strength, because the "disorder" (if you can called it that) causes many children and adults to lose focus, be more susceptible to addictions, and sometimes even more prone to depression. At the same time, however, many ADHD people become creative artists, successful entrepreneurs, or exploring scientists. The venues are endless for someone with an adventurous, impatient personality who wants constant novelty in his or her life.

DESPRE AUDIOBOOK: „Oh, deci așa se numește sentimentul acela care se ține ca scaiul de tine ani și ani, care te roade pe dinăuntru și îți dă viața peste cap!“ ai putea exclama citind Rușinea.
