Download or read book Mummy Says Daddy Says written by Jules Ede and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2018-03-13 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “There are three things that Children will happily share . . . . Nasal mucus secretions. Animal excrement deposits on their shoes. The precise age of their parents.” Mummy Says...Daddy Says introduces the reader to the surreal world of Jules Ede, an author fortunate enough to have resided on the affluent border of South West London and Surrey for the past fourteen years. Having had the opportunity to observe and analyse family life of its more comfortable residents and their privileged offspring from several different aspects, he attempts to sketch an authentic but affectionate caricature of some of these parents and their children by using a canvas of some scenarios that they might well be experiencing in their everyday lives. Stencilled sparingly between some of these portraits are a few choice quotations from children about their nurturers, and alternatively from parents about their beloved offspring that prove to be entertaining and a glimpse through the window of society’s anomalies. The illustrations contained within the pages are completely original and echo those that might appear in Ladybird Adult Humour books. Existing parents will appreciate the humour and entirely accurate portraits depicting the beautiful and often embarrassing things our children say.

But they were unable to come to an amicable agreement, and a UK court ruled that the case be heard in the US, the home of Jasmine's father. Fearing that she would lose her child, Morag fled from Texas with her daughter, only to be hauled back in shackles and incarcerated in a grim American prison. When Morag was eventually freed and awarded custody of her little girl, she thought her nightmare was over. However, back in the UK, every move she made was watched and every mistake recorded.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elijah’s mummy has a sick brain. She suffers from mental illness, which makes her feel very sad and scared sometimes even when she doesn’t need to be. Mummy cries some days; other days, she says her brain is very loud. There are times when Elijah’s mummy sleeps too much, which annoys him since he wants her to come out and play. Elijah knows, though, that Mummy’s brain is sick, so he tries to understand the medication and hospital visits—although he gets scared that she’ll have to stay in the hospital forever. Mummy encourages Elijah to talk about his feelings because feelings, whether good or bad, are important, healthy to express, and not as scary as they seem. Parenting can be a challenge in everyday life, but what if a parent has mental illness? How do we talk to our children about it and what it means for them in their lives? Mummy’s Brain Is Sick provides a safe way to start the discussion with your child in an age-appropriate way, making it less daunting while engaging both parents and kids alike.

Download or read book Abolitionist Intimacies written by El Jones and published by Fernwood Publishing. This book was released on 2022-11-02T00:00:00Z with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Abolitionist Intimacies, El Jones examines the movement to abolish prisons through the Black feminist principles of care and collectivity. Understanding the history of prisons in Canada in their relationship to settler colonialism and anti-Black racism, Jones observes how practices of intimacy become imbued with state violence at carceral sites including prisons, policing and borders, as well as through purported care institutions such as hospitals and social work. The state also polices intimacy through mechanisms such as prison visits, strip searches and managing community contact with incarcerated people. Despite this, Jones argues, intimacy is integral to the ongoing struggles of prisoners for justice and liberation through the care work of building relationships and organizing with the people inside. Through characteristically fierce and personal prose and poetry, and motivated by a decade of prison justice work, Jones observes that abolition is not only a political movement to end prisons; it is also an intimate one deeply motivated by commitment and love.
