Download or read book The New Authority written by Haim Omer and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-11-15 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Haim Omer builds on his previous work to present a model of authority for parents, teachers and community workers that is suitable for today's free and pluralistic societies. This new authority contrasts with traditional authority in that it emphasizes self-control and persistence over control of the child, a network of support over a strict hierarchy, taking mutual responsibility for escalations over holding the child solely responsible, patience over threats, non-violent resistance over physical force, and transparency over secrecy. In addition to a thorough discussion of the underlying theory, The New Authority presents a practical program for families, schools and communities. Dr Omer provides specific instructions to combat violence and risky behavior at home and in school, increase parent and teacher interest and support, and implement interventions that increase safety, improve atmosphere and generate community cohesiveness.

  • Pages : 324 pages

Download or read book The Intimacy Paradox written by Donald S. Williamson and published by Guilford Press. This book was released on 2002-07-01 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although most people physically leave home by their early 20s, emotional separation from one's family is a more difficult process that can continue for a lifetime. Now available in paper for the first time, this acclaimed book addresses the struggle of adults to establish autonomy without sacrificing family connections. Donald S. Williamson presents personal authority therapy, an approach designed to simultaneously foster individual development and family-of-origin intimacy. Therapists are taken step by step through conducting individual, couple, and small group sessions that culminate in several sessions with each client and his or her parents. Writing with sensitivity and humor, the author demonstrates effective ways to help adult children construct new personal and family narratives, resolve intergenerational intimidation, and enjoy healthier, more equal relationships with parents and significant others.

Book Authority  Headship  and Family Structure  According to Moses

Download or read book Authority Headship and Family Structure According to Moses written by Peter G Rambo, Sr and published by . This book was released on 2020-09-10 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Western culture has been on a steady moral decline for at least the last fifty years. The causescan be debated, however the collapse of the family structure and the rise of radical feminism isunquestionably a major factor. Today, masculinity is regarded as toxic and anything that hints atpatriarchy is immediately attacked with a vigor that can only come from the fires of hell.It is this extreme venom against masculinity and patriarchal structure, coupled with theincreasing collapse of society, that should clue the average person in to the fact that there mustbe a deeply spiritual reason why the Enemy of our souls hates the authority structure God put inplace even before the Garden of Eden. Clearly, God has a purpose for ordering family and Hispeople in a certain way.This book is a study through the Books of Moses, coupled with the much broader message ofScripture, to demonstrate that God is very intentional and very consistent in His design for theroles of man and woman. Further, specific attention is given to His structure for clans and tribesin the prophesied restoration of the dry bones of Ezekiel 37, the whole house of Israel. Indeed, for those who desire the coming of the Messiah and long to see the Messianic Age, this bookserves as a sort of field guide to building family, clan, and tribe as we await the full recovery andrestoration of Israel.Join me on this journey of discovery as we connect dots in Scripture, recover lost truths, anddelve into topics that challenge the false paradigms we may have inherited from our fathers.Ultimately, it is to our fathers of old - Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob - that Malachi the prophet bidsus return when he counsels,4:4 "Remember the Torah of Moses My servant, even the statutes andordinances which I commanded him in Horeb for all Israel. 5 "Behold, Iam going to send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of thegreat and terrible day of the Lord. 6 He will restore the hearts of thefathers to their children and the hearts of the children to their fathers, so that I will not come and smite the land with a curse."Do we know the statutes and ordinances, particularly as they relate to authority, headship, and family structure? If these are the Days ofElijah, we had better be grasping the Torah ofMoses and all it says about how the sons anddaughters of Israel are to act and inter

Book Family Theories

Download or read book Family Theories written by James M. White and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2008 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An incisive, thorough introduction to current theories of the family, this text balances the diversity and richness of a broad scope of scholarly work with the conciseness needed for ease of use in a one-semester course for upper-division undergraduate and beginning graduate students. Through two editions, this best-selling text has drawn upon seven major theoretical frameworks developed by key social scientists to explain variation in family life. These frameworks include: social exchange and choice, symbolic-interaction, family life course development, systems, conflict, feminist, and ecological. Readers of the Third Edition will welcome the addition of an eighth framework - funcitional theories - along with more suggestions for integrating theory to guide a research program and more applications for those going on to careers in the helping professions.

Book Relocating Authority

Download or read book Relocating Authority written by Mira Shimabukuro and published by University Press of Colorado. This book was released on 2016-01-15 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Relocating Authority examines the ways Japanese Americans have continually used writing to respond to the circumstances of their community’s mass imprisonment during World War II. Using both Nikkei cultural frameworks and community-specific history for methodological inspiration and guidance, Mira Shimabukuro shows how writing was used privately and publicly to individually survive and collectively resist the conditions of incarceration. Examining a wide range of diverse texts and literacy practices such as diary entries, note-taking, manifestos, and multiple drafts of single documents, Relocating Authority draws upon community archives, visual histories, and Asian American history and theory to reveal the ways writing has served as a critical tool for incarcerees and their descendants. Incarcerees not only used writing to redress the “internment” in the moment but also created pieces of text that enabled and inspired further redress long after the camps had closed. Relocating Authority highlights literacy’s enduring potential to participate in social change and assist an imprisoned people in relocating authority away from their captors and back to their community and themselves. It will be of great interest to students and scholars of ethnic and Asian American rhetorics, American studies, and anyone interested in the relationship between literacy and social justice.
