Parenting & Families

In a world where everyone is rushing and it seems no one is getting anywhere, this 3 month journey will teach you how to slow down and appreciate the gifts in life. Through daily journaling, you and your child will come to a place of open communication, unconditional love, mutual respect and Dreaming big. Stop Raising Einstein is a journal that families complete together each night to share and learn the basic principles of accountability, respect, goals, purpose, philanthropy and living the life you dream. Though this process is valuable to all families, it had an unexpected and profound effect on the author's 9 year old son who is diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome. Through a period of depression, anxiety, diagnoses and loss, these principles saved the author's family, her spirit and her life. Tara Kennedy-Kline's Dream is to share her process with every parent and child on the planet...one conversation at a time.

There are many books written about children, but very few books where the children’s thoughts and views take centre stage. In a society where books on parenting and childhood are based on the adult analysis of children with problems and difficulties, ‘Happy Children – Secrets of how they think’ is completely different. In the children’s own words, this book tells how eight happy children view their life and the world around them. Challenging the notion that all children are obsessed with body image, controlled by peer pressure and crushed by bullying, ‘Happy Children– Secrets of how they think’ reveals a very different picture. Even though these happy children face all the usual ups and downs of childhood, including bullying and family issues, they have found a way to be happy and stay happy. Through in depth and wide ranging interviews, Elizabeth Gould tells their stories and reveals four distinct patterns of how these happy children think. This charming and insightful book will provide valuable insights for all parents and adults who interact with children.
