Talking with children about loss
by Maria Trozzi, with Kathy Massimini (1999)
About this book
"As much as we'd like to, we can't shield our children from loss. But we can provide them with consolation, comfort, and constructive ways to deal with life's sorrows--encouraging both strength and sensitivity and preventing the problems that can arise when feelings are denied or remain unresolved. We can help children bounce back from loss due to the death of a beloved family member, a divorce, the disabling of a sibling or parent, or saying "goodbye" to a faithful pet--if only we know how. Through captivating stories and thoughtful analysis, Maria Trozzi explains how to handle the difficult job of talking with children and adolescents about loss. Book jacket."--Jacket.

Triggers
Amber Lia and Wendy Speake
Do you believe your struggle with anger stems from the wrong behavior you see displayed in your children? The knee-jerk reactions and blow-ups you're facing are often a result of a bigger set of "triggers." Some of these are external, like a child's disobedience, backtalk, or selective hearing, while others are internal, like an overflowing schedule, sleep-deprivation, or perhaps your own painful experiences from childhood. Triggers: Exchanging Parent's Angry Reactions for Gentle Biblical Responses examines common parenting issues that cause us to explode inappropriately at our children. Moving beyond simple parenting tips on how to change your child's behavior, authors Amber Lia and Wendy Speake offer biblical insight and practical tools to equip and encourage you on the journey away from anger-filled reactions toward gentle, biblical responses.

Real boys
William Pollack
"Based on William Pollack's groundbreaking research at Harvard Medical School for more than two decades, Real Boys explores this generation's "silent crisis": why so many boys are sad, lonely, and confused although they may appear tough, cheerful, and confident. Pollack challenges conventional expectations about manhood and masculinity that encourage parents to treat boys as little men, raising them through a toughening process that drives their true emotions underground. Only when we understand what boys are really experiencing, says Pollack, can parents and teachers help them develop more self-confidence and the emotional savvy they need to deal with issues such as depression and violence, drugs and alcohol, sexuality and love.
