Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My name is John Walden. I am married to a great woman of integrity who has brought nothing but joy into my life since the day we said our vows before God. She has been there through the good, the bad, and the ugly. Together we adopted three children and have been foster parents to several others. Children have always been a part of our lives for as long as I can remember. We currently reside in Stapleton, GA where our children attend school in Wrens, GA. We attend Praise Deliverance Campus and Ministries International of Wrens as a family. The ministry is under the leadership of Dr. Christine A. Wallace of Augusta, GA. I serve as an Elder in the ministry and often wears the hat of many workmen. I have taken some classes online and not all were good experiences. I am determined to succeed and vow to myself to give 112 percent to accomplish the goals that I have set for myself. I decided to return to school so that I could set an example for my children. I dont want to encourage them to do something that I have not attempted to do myself. I feel that it is important to lead by example. My interest is working in the community to encourage young men to seek God. To let them know there is something better in this world we live in then what we are faced with from day to day if we put God first. I hope to expand my territory and broaden my outreach ministry to include the surrounding areas of Wrens, GA and beyond. I have an interest in developing a group home and safe house for trouble teens. My heart goes out to any man, woman, boy, or girl who feel they have no where to go and no one to turn to. I want to provide a safe haven for those in need. So many children have came through our home too.
Download or read book Taking Care of Men written by Anthony McMahon and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1999-08-13 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea of the sensitive, post-feminist 'new man' has received great attention. This book sets out to determine how much of the hype is based on fact, and why such images have proliferated in the media. McMahon focuses on the pivotal issue of men's relationship to the vital daily work of caring for people - both physically and emotionally - revealing much confusion about the extent and the interpretation of change. Using statistical data, as well as interview transcripts and media analysis, McMahon draws insightful distinctions between pleasure and performance, assistance and responsibility, gendered personality and gendered jobs, and - underlying all - between consumption and production. Incorporating social theory, psychology and popular culture, this book argues that recent social conversation about men largely avoids the important political point that men's material interests provide a major motivation for resistance to pro-equity change.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the current interest in recruiting and supporting more men in the early childhood education workforce.

This volume will be of interest and value to students, academics and practitioners interested in gender diversity and equity within early childhood education and care.

Based on qualitative research, it pays particular attention to the needs and requirements of older people, considering their individual family situations, social circumstances, values and lifestyles. Person-centred care is a way of providing nursing care that puts older people and their families at the core of all decisions, seeing each person as an individual, and working together to develop appropriate solutions. Following an introduction to the concept of quality of life in old age, the book reviews essential findings from worldwide research into the experiences of older people with regard to nursing care and the impact of these experiences on their quality of life. It investigates health promotion, care provided in nursing homes and assisted living facilities, and palliative care. Each chapter includes a brief introduction to the respective field of nursing care and the problems it has to deal with, concluding with a discussion of their implications for nursing practice in the respective field of care. In closing, the evidence from qualitative research is discussed in relation to current gerontological theories.
