I longed for a kindred soul, someone who would understand my grief. I dreaded the emotion I knew would come. My sister had passed just over twelve months prior to finding this book.

Love truly never dies; therefore our loved ones are always by our side.-Erin Baer, Best-selling Author Speaker

Loving the Alien
Everything was going along well until your child entered adolescence. Now your once compliant child isolates in their room, gives one-word answers, and prefers their peers over you. You feel obsolete and your parenting style is ineffective. In Loving the Alien, author JoAnn Schauf, acknowledges this pain and teaches parents leadership skills to lead their children through puberty, their search for identity, and their immature prefrontal cortex with confidence and wisdom. Parents recognize themselves in the stories that introduce each chapter. They then shift to a parenting philosophy that motivates them to invest in approaches that address shared problem-solving, discussing sex and relationships, eliminating entitlement, and communicating to build connection. This step-by-step approach empowers not just your tween to thrive, but both of you to grow in respect and understanding. This results in fewer conflicts and more joy for your family.
Children Do Come with a Manual
We wrote this book as a companion to our book on parenting to encourage parents and potential parents to daily use the Bible as a manual for the guidance and wisdom required in raising a child into a follower of Christ Jesus and a productive successful adult, as well as our manual for living a full, joyful and productive life while here on this earth in preparation for an eternal life with Him after his return.A friend of mine told me that in his opinion the Bible is; Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth, that has stuck in my mind, and I like that prospective even more as I unpack all of the information the scriptures reveal to me.Unlike most manuals this one tells us how it all started, what the intent was, what happened to change things from the initial intent, our history of rebellion, and what will have to be done to restore both us and this earth to its intended state and purpose.

The Breakthrough Years
Blending cutting-edge research with engaging storytelling, The Breakthrough Years offers readers a paradigm-shifting comprehensive understanding of adolescence. "Just wait until they're a teenager!" Many parents of newborns have heard this warning about the stressful phase that's to come. But what if it doesn't have to be that way? Child development expert Ellen Galinsky challenges widely held assumptions about adolescents and offers new ways for parents and others to better understand and interact with them in a way that helps them thrive. By combining the latest research on cognitive neuroscience with an unprecedented and extensive set of studies of young people nine through nineteen and their families, Galinsky reveals, among other things, that adolescents don't want to separate completely from their parents but seek a different type of relationship; that they want to be helpers rather than be helped; and that social media can become a positive influence for teens. Galinsky's Shared Solutions framework and Possibilities Mindset show you how to turn daily conflicts into opportunities for problem-solving where both teens and parents feel listened to and respected; how to encourage positive risk-taking in your child like standing up for themselves, making new friends, and helping their communities; and how to promote five essential executive function-based skills that can help them succeed now and in the future. The Breakthrough Years recasts adolescence as a time of possibility for teens and adults, offering breakthrough opportunities for connection.

And if you open your mind and heart, you will be pleasantly and wonderfully surprised.The teens of today are probably the most informed in the history of this modern world. Why shouldn't we be? You have created social media, smart television, Alexa, Google, YouTube, Twitter, Instagram, and many more communications that put the world at our fingertips.The Bible says in Joel 2:28, "And it shall come to pass afterward that I will pour out My Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions." The above applies to this book as well.

The Learning Mystique
An essential book for any parent whose child has been labeled "learning disabled," for any teacher who has worked with these children, for anyone interested in the future of education and the future of our children With alarming, even shocking frequency, children of normal intelligence who do not read, remember, or concentrate at the same level as their peers are branded "learning disabled," the victims of some sort of neurological dysfunction. No one thought to examine the theory or the practice that has consigned nearly two million of these children to "special ed" classes, subjected some of them to special treatment with drugs, and stigmatized many with a sense of intellectual inferiority for life. The Learning Mystique is the first direct challenge by a distinguished scholar to the concept of learning disabilities. Rigorously scrutinizing all of the available research on learning disabilities, Gerald Coles demonstrates beyond question that neurological explanations have never been scientifically substantiated, and that a considerable amount of professional practice in the schools is based on mere speculation. But The Learning Mystique is more than a condemnation of the attitude toward learning disabilities. Coles presents his own stimulating ideas on learning differences, arguing that school failure must be viewed and treated in the context of both the learning environment and the child's individual abilities, behavior, family life, and social relationships.
