daughter? Are you a Virgo mother with a Pisces son who seems to be
your polar opposite? Wondering why your little Taurus was such an
easy baby, but your Aquarius was anything but? Even if you've only

given astrology a second thought, you'll be amazed at the insights
you'll get from Momstrology, a guide to parenting by the stars.

understanding what it means when your toddler gets clingy, or your
big kid wants to quit soccer, or your tween talks back, Momstrology
is a unique guide through all of the phases of your child's life.

child deals with authority, limits, separation, and siblings, the

your sign and another section that matches you with your children

keepsake pages. Written by a midwife, this charming little book is
a meditation on the precious, but short time, we carry our children
magically within us.
From highly influential experts in education and based on research with over 60,000 students, this book comes highly recommended from some the biggest thinkers in personal development today. A powerful new approach to help your teen move from disengagement to drive.
Adolescents are hardwired to explore and grow, and learning is mainly how they do this. But a shocking majority of teens are disengaged from school, simultaneously bored and overwhelmed. As parents, we can feel powerless and don’t know how to help – until now.
Based on five years of research into why children lose their love of learning, award-winning journalist Jenny Anderson and the Brookings Institution’s global education expert Rebecca Winthrop have created a transformative model that every parent, carer and educator needs to know about.
Identifying four modes of learning that every student goes through – resister, passenger, achiever and explorer – you’ll find out why understanding what these are is crucial to your child’s development and how you can coach them to become a curious, resilient and motivated learner.
With stories from children who have used the tools in this book to become life-long learners, and with clear strategies on how to become your child’s best cheerleader, this book is essential reading for everyone who wants to help young people thrive.

direction. You'll learn. how adolescents think differently than
adults; how examples of adolescents in biblical times provide

physical development, tips on discipline, and ways to help young
people take responsibility for their actions. It's important to get
the knowledge you need to confront the tough issues of being a
parent and of becoming an adult.
As a parent or young person, you need to understand the
psychology and dynamics that define adolescence. You'll find the
answers you need from a longtime pastor who has spent long hours
listening, encouraging and counseling young people in Parents:
