The softer side of the abortion debate ... In contrast to the front
line war of words that emanate with most protest views, Doris takes
us behind the scenes into real life drama. The stories contained in
this book will make you smile, cry, and find a place in your heart
for hurting people that are usually blurred out of the media
headlines. As a Pastor, I appreciate the caring way she approaches
the issues and the caring hands that she reaches out with to touch
hurting hearts. Pastor Rudy Bond New Life Worship Center, Tyler,
Texas Doris has gathered a treasury of hope and joy surrounding the
adoption process, including Scriptural encouragement and honesty
about the fears and challenges involved. This book is a testament
to the hand of God with even the least of these. Sara Maynard is a
Texas attorney, specializing in representing children. She is Board
Certified in Juvenile Law. ADOPTION JOYS, THEY EXPECTED A MIRACLE,
explains God's plan for unplanned pregnancies through moving
testimonies of families who have experienced the joy of adoption.
As the mother of two adopted children and one adopted grandson, I
found myself rejoicing with the families through their stories.
This book will be an effective tool to encourage couples to
consider adopting children to complete their family. Birth parents
will also understand the joy their baby will bring to the adoptive
couple; and, perhaps, cause them to consider releasing their baby
for adoption. God patterned adoption by adopting us into His family
through His Son Jesus hrist. May this book challenge birth and
adoptive parents to allow children to experience God's
unconditional love through the gift of adoption. Judith E.
Shalllcross, Retired Christian School principal.
This book was birthed after seeing so many students come into my
office day after day and tell me all kinds of horror stories about
their home life. So this book is written to express the passion in
my heart to bring forth a realization of God's Word and His
standard of parenting, a standard that never fails if used
according to the way it was written and established. I hope to
express that God's Word is the only groundwork and foundation laid
out for parents or caregivers to follow when raising children to be
morally and righteously sound. Parenting is one of the most
important roles that God designed for mankind, and it is time for
us to take this role seriously. I want parents to know that
Christian counseling is an essential tool that can be use to raise
godly and biblically moral children. My ultimate desire is to
educate, equip, and empower parents with the necessary tools to
raise productive, educated, law-abiding, and God-fearing children.
I would also like to leave the reader with the knowledge of how
proper counseling and guidance can shape the emotional, physical,
social, and spiritual nature of a child in a form that is pleasing
to God.
The loss of a child is never going to be easy for any parent and
questioning yourself will always be a part of the processing you
have to get through. Your faith can be what holds you together with
the help of your family, or you can isolate yourself and try to
make it on your own. Awareness of parenting skills can assist in
making right choices as you raise your children and faith can
strengthen those choices.
Seres que aunque con su alma limpia y su coraz n puro, pero a pesar
de sus grandes discapacidades han tenido que vivir dependiendo de
Dios y de sus padres. Para estos que no escogieron su manera de
vivir y que no hicieron decisiones por ellos mismos, sino que han
tenido que depender de los que le dieron la vida. Frustraci n por
no poder ayudarles es el sentimiento que los padres sienten al
respecto. Hijos que crecen sin disfrutar la vida en su plenitud.
Desde que nacen se toma la decisi n de amarlos y cuidarlos.
Finalmente el dolor de despedir a este ngel que regresa a su hogar
al cielo donde estar en un cuerpo perfecto. Vivir con un ngel aqu
en la tierra es una experiencia que nadie puede explicar ni tampoco
entender.

Everybody knows how it feels to be ostracized, isolated or
taunted, but most of us are at a loss when it comes to knowing how
to make it better. In Carrie Goldman's groundbreaking book,
Bullied, she offers concrete solutions for parents, teachers, and
kids on how to effectively respond to painful situations--whether
it is normal social conflict or more serious bullying.
Goldman's warm, engaging style combines the real-life stories of
bullies, victims, bystanders, and their parents with the most
cutting edge scientific research to provide a thorough analysis of
cruelty in our culture. She explores how the pop culture permeates
homes and schools, often impacting the way kids view those who are
different from the accepted norm.
Bullied comprehensively addresses issues such as: The media's
influence on aggression and bullying How to prevent cyberbullying,
or how to manage cyberbullying once it has begun How to safely
shift from being a bystander into a witness or an ally Effects of
bullying on the brain, both for bullies and for victims Steps to
take with the school if you are being bullied or sexually harassed
A comprehensive look at restorative justice as a non-punitive
response to bullying Techniques to help you deal with verbal
taunting in the moment it is happening Identifying the difference
between normal social drama and bullying Knowing when to ask for
help and how to access effective help
The mother of a bullied first grader, Goldman's inspiring true
story triggered an outpouring of support from online communities
around the world. Bullied is a research-based book born from
Goldman's blog post about the ridicule her daughter suffered for
bringing a Star Wars thermos to school--a story that went viral on
Facebook and Twitter before exploding everywhere, from CNN.com and
Yahoo.com to sites all around the world. More than 200 people were
interviewed for the book, including parents, teachers, kids, social
workers, authors, celebrities, researchers, psychologists, actors,
actresses, and school administrators. It is a wealth of knowledge
packaged in a fascinating read.
