Download or read book Angry House written by Alexis Kennedy and published by Title Wave Publishing LLC. This book was released on 2018-08-07 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Frozen in its sinister history, the house waited for him. Searching for solitude along Vermont’s back roads, dejected author Rhett Shaw discovers a dilapidated and abandoned house. Sitting alone on a private road, the house offers Rhett a quiet setting to finish his next book while he repairs it to its former glory. While renovating the house, strange noises, visions, and feelings overwhelm Rhett, making him question his sanity. Despite the phenomena, however, he becomes obsessed with the restorations, and the more sweat he pours into them, the more he feels the house urging him. As the house takes shape, so does Rhett’s new book, which seems to write itself. His characters embed themselves inside his thoughts and possibly—he fears—his actions. The same crimes he includes in his manuscript are plaguing his new community in explicit detail, and the distraught author can’t tell if he’s depicting them before they’re committed or after. Is he psychic, or is he the perpetrator? She whispered, “It gets angry, and then it consumes you.” Ages 14+

Download or read book Understanding Angry Groups written by Susan C. Cloninger and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2017-01-23 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the dynamics that lead to anger in individuals, within groups, and between groups; identifies the role of the media in angry group behavior; and offers solutions for dealing with angry groups and channeling that negative energy in positive ways. In today's society, we see angry groups in many forms—from animal rights and climate crisis activists to citizens opposed to allowing more immigrants of certain ethnicities or religions into the country, militia groups frustrated by acts of domestic terrorism and legislation that limits gun ownership and the ability to carry weapons in public, and those outraged by what they see as police brutality or the unnecessary use of deadly force against people of color. More than just evidence of civil unrest in society, angry groups across history and nations often ultimately affect our politics and our government, for better or worse, and sometimes result in injury, bloodshed, or financial costs that hit otherwise-uninvolved taxpayers. This book demonstrates how people across our nation are involved in, affected by, or harmed by angry groups; covers historical and modern perspectives on angry groups; ands offers suggestions for predicting and influencing the expression of angry group behavior. It provides readers with an understanding of such conflicts and of their origins and dynamics that may offer insights to successful resolution, and it identifies strategies that can reduce the suffering that comes from such conflicts.

Download or read book Lizzy Lives in an Angry House written by Karen Addison and published by . This book was released on 2015-01-15 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Karen Addison, educator, author and speaker, has witnessed and experienced the devastating effects of emotional and verbal abuse. Many have not addressed this form of destruction in relationships because it is difficult to talk about and difficult to understand. Often people don't realize they are in emotionally destructive relationships, and this is especially true of children. If they are living in a home where a parent is "scary angry" and emotionally destructive, chances are the other parent is struggling to cope with that person, as well as the negative dynamics in the home. With wisdom and practical experience, Addison gives readers young and old alike an empathetic approach to recognizing emotionally destructive (scary angry) relationships and tools to help those living in "scary angry" homes overcome and break the cycle of abuse. Readers will learn to identify unhealthy behaviors and attitudes that make up a destructive relationship and actions meant to punish and control. They will come to understand the abuse ("scary anger") is not their fault and be taught the foundations of a healthy relationship. Readers will also learn how to turn down the angry person's voice and turn up the healthy words and support from people in their webs of support. This practical resource will help countless children, families and trusted adults make sense of an angry parent, show how to love them and still be able to stand up and speak up, and teach ways to keep themselves safe. Lizzy Lives In An Angry House is unique in that there are very few resources available that speak specifically about verbal and emotional abuse from a child's perspective. Addison has children who have experienced emotional and verbal abuse share their feelings and what works in helping them heal and overcome. Some of the most powerful elements in the book are the illustrations drawn by youth living in angry homes. Because almost all abuse begins with emotional and verbal assault, it is imperative that children understand at an early age what constitutes a healthy relationship and the characteristics of a destructive relationship. Addison and Lizzy offer hope, healing, and life-changing truths. They are living proof that you can come out of an emotionally destructive environment with strength, confidence, hope, and health.

Download or read book Angry Me written by Sandra V. Feder and published by Groundwood Books Ltd. This book was released on 2022-05-01 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A young child tells us what makes her angry and how she tries to let the anger come and go. An artful starting point for conversations about strong feelings. “I get angry,” says a little girl, looking fiercely in the mirror. Sometimes she gets angry when someone is mean and tries to take her toy away, when it feels unfair that there’s not enough time to go swimming, when she’s tired and just wants to go home, or when the kids at school leave her out, hurting her feelings. When she’s angry, she tries to remember to use her words — even though that doesn’t always work. Sometimes she can’t find the right words, or the words don’t come out the way she intends. But sometimes words do help, and when her anger melts away a new feeling can blossom. Sandra Feder’s cleverly constructed text presents different situations in which a child might feel angry, creating a nuanced look at anger and its many underlying emotions. Rahele Jomepour Bell’s illustrations show a loveable, angry little girl, brimming with personality, who learns how to express herself as she moves through her feelings.

Download or read book The Angry American written by Susan Tolchin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-07-03 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Clinton scandals. The Rise of militia and patriot groups. The proliferation of ?trash? TV. Record U.S. trade deficits. Isolated events, or is there some connecting thread? Susan Tolchin says it's anger?mainstream, inclusive, legitimate public anger?and it's not going to vanish until we as a polity acknowledge it and harness its power. How to tap into this pervasive political anger and release its creative energy without being swept away by its force is the dilemma of the 1990s for government leaders and citizens alike. The second edition of this acclaimed volume has been completed revised and updated to account for the ways in which recent events have contributed to the history, causes, and consequences of anger in American politics today. The book embraces positive solutions to problems we are all entitled to be angry about: economic uncertainty, cultural divisiveness, political disintegration, and a world changing faster than our ability to assimilate. Tolchin's solutions incorporate a renewed sense of community, enhanced political access, and responsive rather than reactive government.

Book excerpt: She was even lovelier than my memory of her. I watched her as she walked into the room, admiring the smooth movement of her fine legs and the curves under the soft weave of her sweater. She tossed her thick dark hair back and walked over to me. “It’s been a long time, Al.” Her voice still had the husky breathless sound that made my ears burn. I stepped close to her and put my hands on her waist. Her head went back, her eyes shining at me with bitterness and confusion and something else I couldn’t read. I drew her to me and felt the soft impact of her body and kissed her—her throat and then her lips. Her mouth opened and her body abandoned itself to mine, her fingernails digging at my back.

Book excerpt: “A lively story as delectable as a five-pound box of chocolates . . . a thoroughly engaging chronicle of friendship and the substantive place it holds in women’s lives.”—Anne D. LeClaire, author of Leaving Eden The women of Freesia Court are convinced that there is nothing good coffee, delicious desserts, and a strong shoulder can’t fix. Laughter is the glue that holds them together—the foundation of a book group they call AHEB (Angry Housewives Eating Bon Bons), an unofficial “club” that becomes much more. It becomes a lifeline. Holding on through forty eventful years, there’s Faith, a lonely mother of twins who harbors a terrible secret that has condemned her to living a lie; big, beautiful Audrey, the resident sex queen who knows that with good posture and an attitude you can get away with anything; Merit, the doctor’s shy wife with the face of an angel and the private hell of an abusive husband; Kari, a wise woman with a wonderful laugh who knows that the greatest gifts appear after life’s fiercest storms; and finally, Slip, a tiny spitfire of a woman who isn’t afraid to look trouble straight in the eye. This stalwart group of friends depicts a special slice of American life, of stay-at-home days and new careers, of children and grandchildren, of bold beginnings and second chances, in which the power of forgiveness, understanding, and the perfectly timed giggle fit is the CPR that mends broken hearts and shattered dreams. “It is impossible not to get caught up in the lives of the book group members. . . . Landvik’s gift lies in bringing these familiar women to life with insight and humor.”—The Denver Post “A guilty pleasure . . . This light, snappy read may be [Landvik’s] best yet.”—Midwest Living

Download or read book The Angry Child written by Dr. Timothy Murphy and published by Harmony. This book was released on 2010-04-28 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every child has an off day when nothing seems to go right, but for some, angry outbursts, frustration, and resentment are the norm. When a child's anger threatens to jeopardize his school and social life and introduces an element of strain into the family dynamics that affects every member, it's time for a parent to ask: When is angry too angry? Child psychologist Dr. Tim Murphy has addressed this very question with hundreds of families, helping them to understand both the causes and the repercussions of childhood anger and to devise effective strategies for defusing the time bomb in their midst. Whether it's a toddler staging a tantrum, a grade-schooler unable to make friends, or a sulking preteen who greets every adult request with antagonism, parents of angry children are baffled by both the depth and the root of their child's unhappiness. And when small social problems and household disputes regularly escalate into full-fledged battles, it's nearly impossible for parents to distance themselves enough from the situation to find a perspective that will remedy it. With simple, direct techniques, Dr. Murphy shows it is possible to help an angry child understand what triggers his outbursts and develop new approaches for coping with potentially explosive situations. Identifying the ten telling characteristics of an angry child, Dr. Murphy provides examples from his clinical experience to help adults guide their children to more appropriate responses. Dr. Murphy also alerts readers to parenting styles that work best for these volatile children, explaining how a parent's own behavior can sometimes escalate a child's meltdowns. He pinpoints the moments when anger moves from a normal emotional expression to an extreme one, indicative of a larger problem. In a special chapter devoted to winning daily battles, Dr. Murphy offers advice on situations in which an angry child's temper is most likely to flare. The Angry Child is destined to be a classic. With real solutions for the concerns of millions of parents, Dr. Murphy offers answers and hope for the families and educators of unhappy children of all ages.
