Start Here- A Parent's Guide to Helping Children and Teens through Mental Health Challenges
Type : epub |
Size : 3.1 MB |
Descirption: From two of the top child and adolescent psychiatrists comes an accessible guide to common mental health struggles, such as anxiety and depression, for any parent wondering how to help their child.
Is my child okay? Is she eating and sleeping enough? Is he hanging out with the right people? Should I be worried that she spends all their time in her room? Is this just a phase? Or a sign of something serious?
As parents, we worry about our children-about their physical health, performance at college, the types of friends they have, and of course, their mental health. Every day seems to bring new and expanding issues and disorders for parents to worry about and troubling statistics about the rise of mental illness in children and teens. It's usually obvious what to do for physical injuries like broken bones, but when it comes to our children's mental health, the answers are much less clear, and sometimes even contradictory.

Descirption: A vivid retelling of Norse mythology that explores these legendary stories and their significance and influence on the Viking world.

In Tales of Valhalla, the Whittocks have dramatically retold these rich stories and sets them in context within the wider Viking world. Including both myths-stories, usually religious, which explain origins, why things are as they are, the nature of the spiritual-and legends-stories which attempt to explain historical events and which may involve historical characters but which are told in a non-historical way and which often include supernatural events-Tales from Valhalla is an accessible and lively volume that...

The Bold World- A Memoir of Family and Transformation
Type : epub |
Size : 14.25 MB |
English |
Descirption: Inspired by her transgender son, activist Jodie Patterson explores identity, gender, race, and authenticity to tell the story of a family's history and transformation.
As an African American growing up in the 1970s on Manhattan's Upper West Side during a time when neighborhoods defined people, Jodie Patterson learned early on to engage with her community for strength and comfort. But then in 2009, this mother of five had her world turned upside down. Realizing her definition of community wasn't wide enough for her own child's needs, Jodie forced the world wide open.
In The Bold World, we witness a mother, reshaping her attitudes and beliefs, as well as those of her community, to meet the needs of her transgender son, Penelope-along with her own and those of everyone in her family who absolutely, unequivocally refused to conform. Jodie's relentless drive to change the world reminds us of our own individual strength and tenacity, of our very...
