The Right To Be The Grown-Up: Helping Parents Be Parents to Their Difficult Teens -- Facilitator's Guide, 6 copies of Parent Handbook, plus "affirmations" card deck

The Right To Be The Grown-Up: Helping Parents Be Parents to Their Difficult Teens -- Facilitator's Guide, 6 copies of Parent Handbook, plus "affirmations" card deck Review

Jerome Price and Judith Margerum have joined forces to bring together an essential model for helping parents to help themselves as parents. Therapists will find here a host of practical, easy-to-implement strategies for working with parents to reclaim their lives when their children’s behavior is out of control. Each Right to Be the Grown-Up package comes with a "Facilitator's Guide" and 6 copies of the "Parent Handbook." The package is designed to be used in groups or when working alongside parents in a private therapy setting. (The authors also provide a series of parenting affirmations -- or lifelines -- on wallet-sized cards so that therapists can give them out to their clients.)

The Facilitator’s Guide is laid out into 5 sessions – Getting Started; Reactivity; Information; Coalitions/Teamwork; and Making It Work. Step-by-step guidance is provided on how to lead parents gently but determinedly through a series of learning modules, each of which will clarify parenting goals, instill hope, provide tools, and "unfuzzy" the boundaries that have faded over time. Practical exercises and support materials are offered throughout.

The Parent Handbook follows the sequence of the guide and offers a slew of helpful homework assignments, definitions, and mottos designed to reinforce the information presented there and to bolster parent confidence even at the toughest of times.

Developed by the Michigan Family Institute, this skills program has already met with great success through workshops and trainings based on it. Price and Margerum show what it looks like to move from theory to action when it comes to improving the lives of parents and their adolescent children.

How to Eat Like a Child: And Other Lessons in Not Being a Grown-up

How to Eat Like a Child: And Other Lessons in Not Being a Grown-up Review

Universal and timeless, Delia Ephron's How to Eat Like a Child is a delightful revisiting of the joys -- and tricky ploys -- of childhood. Made into a children's television special and a musical theater revue performed across the country each year, How to Eat Like a Child offers advice beyond the artful etiquette of food consumption. Ephron also teaches us "How to Laugh Hysterically," "How to Have a Birthday Party," "How to Torture Your Sister," and much, much more. As the Washington Post Book World noted, `After the giggles of recognition have subsided, one thing will be very clear: all adults are kids in grown-ups' clothing."

Sing Loudly in Your Car! A Book of Whimsy for Grown-ups

Sing Loudly in Your Car! A Book of Whimsy for Grown-ups Review

Sing Loudly in your Car! A Book of Whimsy for Grown-ups is a playful collection of poems, essays and illustrations exploring the delights and disappointments of everyday life. Its youthful energy may remind you of parts of yourself you had forgotten all about. Don't be alarmed if you find yourself giggling out loud! The rhyming poems celebrate life's pleasures and absurdities with colorful characters and vivid detail, while the list of daily annoyances ("Dontcha hate when"...) adds levity to life's daily downfalls. The prose memories recall the author's childhood as told through a child's voice, but with a grown-up's wisdom. Whether describing expressions of love, life in today's fast-paced society, or finding one's own voice, Rosenbaum takes on each topic with thoughtfulness and humor. Whimsical black and white illustrations, the type usually reserved for children's books, enhance the writings with imaginative flair. This is a book that you will return to again and again.

SELECTED AS A 2008 BEST BUSINESS BOOK OF THE YEAR BY THE ECONOMIST

The Net Generation Has Arrived.
Are you ready for it?

Chances are you know a person between the ages of 11 and 30. You've seen them doing five things at once: texting friends, downloading music, uploading videos, watching a movie on a two-inch screen, and doing who-knows-what on Facebook or MySpace. They're the first generation to have literally grown up digital--and they're part of a global cultural phenomenon that's here to stay.

The bottom line is this: If you understand the Net Generation, you will understand the future.

If you're a Baby Boomer or Gen-Xer: This is your field guide.

A fascinating inside look at the Net Generation, Grown Up Digital is inspired by a million private research study. New York Times bestselling author Don Tapscott has surveyed more than 11,000 young people. Instead of a bunch of spoiled “screenagers” with short attention spans and zero social skills, he discovered a remarkably bright community which has developed revolutionary new ways of thinking, interacting, working, and socializing.

Grown Up Digital reveals:

• How the brain of the Net Generation processes information
• Seven ways to attract and engage young talent in the workforce
• Seven guidelines for educators to tap the Net Gen potential
• Parenting 2.0: There's no place like the new home
• Citizen Net: How young people and the Internet are transforming democracy

Today's young people are using technology in ways you could never imagine. Instead of passively watching television, the “Net Geners” are actively participating in the distribution of entertainment and information. For the first time in history, youth are the authorities on something really important. And they're changing every aspect of our society-from the workplace to the marketplace, from the classroom to the living room, from the voting booth to the Oval Office.

The Digital Age is here. The Net Generation has arrived. Meet the future.

The Next World Over (A Supernatural Thriller for Grown-ups) (Nextworld)

The Next World Over (A Supernatural Thriller for Grown-ups) (Nextworld) Review

What if:
-you could find a way to walk to a better world than Earth?

-that other world had elves living in it?

-there were demons and evil magicians at work in the world we see around us?

-the elves could help us set this world right?

-a demon attempted to incarnate through a human mother?

"Until he was on his deathbed, my grandfather never said a word to me about FDR and the elves," Richard thought...

After Vietnam, all Richard Round wants is a normal life. But when the Materialist Magicians and their demon masters come after him, only the elves can save him. Problem is, all the elves were driven out of this world before Richard was born.

“You must go to the elves, Richard, where they are. You must go. Everything depends upon it,” said Richard's grandfather...

Can Richard and his friend Zenman find the way to the good guys in the next world over before the bad guys kill them-- and destroy this one?

“Cast your boat aside,” Zenman said. “Stand on the river and walk...”

Things are looking grim in Portsmouth, New Hampshire.

The damned thing was standing up in the middle of Market Square, lurching toward me, screaming terrible curses in that twisted inhuman tongue...

And what about the horrible things that are happening in Tibet?

The Perspex lid of the sarcophagus swung to one side. The Claimant was almost among us, in the flesh. I began to understand what a “crime against nature” really was...

Poor Richard's normal life is looking way out of reach.
But a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do, right?
Even if that means becoming an elf.
