Book excerpt: A theoretical ode to single moms, Raising My Manchild debuts as Author T. Grow's first memoir of her writing career. Telling her story with the intent to provide a sense of hope, relation and perspective to others, this title is her self-proclaimed most important ministry-birthing work. The term "baby mama" can be such a negative and intimidating label, but T. Grow has taken on the challenge of negating the negative stereotypes in her role as a sort of "Baby Mama Fairy GodMother". A war cry of hope to fellow single moms, Raising My Manchild chronicles a journey of single motherhood through the trenches, onward into continued healing. It is a transparent display of vulnerability and grit, and a brave confrontation towards societal labels.

Book excerpt: At the age of 18, I didn't know how to be a mother, nor did I know what it would take. What I knew was, I didn't want my child or children to be like any average person that I had seen. Being told that I, as a woman wouldn't be able to raise a male child, I was determined to prove all of the Naysayers wrong. I had to understand how to raise them, and it wasn't based on our sec but based on being individuals. Helping them in areas where they didn't know how I knew what they were dealing with or going through, we always made it through. A mother of five, entrepreneur, author, community activists, preacher, and speaker, my first love or my first ministry is my family. No matter how much I try to change the lives of others through my life experiences, I am only successful when the lives of those that came from me are changed first. Is it easy? No, but am or have I put the work in? Yes, and that's what keeps me pushing to be better and help others to become better.

Book How To Raise A Boy

Download or read book How To Raise A Boy written by Michael C. Reichert and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2020-07-21 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At a time when many boys are in crisis, a much-needed roadmap for helping boys grow into strong and compassionate men Over the past two decades there has been an explosion of new studies that have expanded our knowledge of how boys think and feel. In How to Raise a Boy, psychologist Michael Reichert draws on his decades of research to challenge age-old conventions about how boys become men. Reichert explains how the paradigms about boys needing to be stoic and "man like" can actually cause them to shut down, leading to anger, isolation, and disrespectful or even destructive behaviors. The key to changing the culture lies in how parents, educators, and mentors help boys develop socially and emotionally. Reichert offers readers step-by-step guidance in doing just this by: Listening and observing, without judgment, so that boys know they're being heard. Helping them develop strong connections with teachers, coaches, and other role models Encouraging them to talk about their feelings about the opposite sex and stressing the importance of respecting women Letting them know that they don't have to "be a man" or "suck it up," when they are experiencing physical or emotional pain. Featuring the latest insights from psychology and neuroscience, How to Raise a Boy will help those who care for young boys and teenagers build a boyhood that will enable them to grow into confident, accomplished and kind men.

Book How to Raise a Man

Download or read book How to Raise a Man written by Megan de Beyer and published by Penguin Random House South Africa. This book was released on 2020-02-01 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In How to Raise a Man, as you learn more about the development of masculinity, identify your parenting style and familiarise yourself with the issues facing parenthood today, you will become a more compassionate, centred and effective parent. In this era of #metoo and #allmenaretrash, it’s evident that something is going wrong with the way men progress from childhood into adulthood, and few realise how critical the role of the purposeful and emotionally empowered mother is in a boy’s journey to maturity. So, what does all this mean for you as the mother of an adolescent boy? Like it or not, mom, your son is Generation Z. He has been adored and treasured, photo-graphed and recorded. Many of his generation of adolescents are outwardly assertive and outspoken and have good boundaries, yet inwardly they are full of paradoxes. And they are confusing to manage – your GenZ rules you. They are clever. But as a mother, you need to be smarter. Teenagers need centred adults to guide them. Confident, capable adults should never overreact, sulk, withdraw or blame, and if you find yourself resorting to this behaviour, it is time to reset your parenting methods. If you are confused or irritated by your pre-teen or teenage son, or feel bewildered and hurt by his behaviour, this book will guide you to a clear understanding of teenagers in general and teenage boys in particular. Written by a parenting expert, and drawing on Western psychology as well as Eastern philosophy, the processes and ideas in this practical guide will help you raise the man you want your son to be.

Book Childless by Marriage

Download or read book Childless by Marriage written by Sue Fagalde Lick and published by . This book was released on 2021-06 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First you marry a man who does not want children. He cheats and you divorce him. Then you marry the love of your life and find out he does not want to have children with you either. The three he has are more than enough. Although you always wanted to be a mother, you decide he is worth the sacrifice, expecting to have a long happy life together. But that's not what happens. This is the story of how a woman becomes childless by marriage and how it affects every aspect of her life. This is the book of my heart, the one I had to write. Ever since I realized I was not going to have children, I have felt recurring grief and an emptiness in my heart. I am different from most women, but I have found that I am not alone. There are many of us childless women, and I think it's important to share our stories about what it's like when you don't have children in a world where most girls grow up to become mothers. I hope this book offers comfort to those who are childless and understanding to those who are not. If it makes you smile here and there, even better.
