Download or read book Mommy Man written by Jerry Mahoney and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2014-05-08 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a teenager growing up in the 1980s, all Jerry Mahoney wanted was a nice, normal sham marriage: 2.5 kids and a frustrated, dissatisfied wife living in denial of her husband’s sexuality. Hey, why not? It seemed much more attainable and fulfilling than the alternative—coming out of the closet and making peace with the fact that he’d never have a family at all. Twenty years later, Jerry is living with his long-term boyfriend, Drew, and they’re ready to take the plunge into parenthood. But how? Adoption? Foster parenting? Kidnapping? What they want most of all is a great story to tell their future kid about where he or she came from. Their search leads them to gestational surrogacy, a road less traveled where they’ll be borrowing a stranger’s ladyparts for nine months. Thus begins Jerry and Drew’s hilarious and unexpected journey to daddyhood. From then on, they’re in uncharted waters. They’re forced to face down homophobic baby store clerks, a hospital that doesn’t know what to do with them, even members of their own family who think what they’re doing is a little nutty. One thing’s for sure. If this all works out, they’re going to have an incredible birth story to tell their kid. With honesty, emotion, and laugh-out-loud humor, Jerry Mahoney ponders what it means to become a Mommy Man . . . and discovers that the answer is as varied and beautiful as the concept of family itself.

Download or read book Happy Single written by Arnaud van der Veere and published by Arnaud van der Veere. This book was released on 2021-02-07 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All over the world, the number of singles is increasing. With the rise of the economy, people are able to keep a form of independence. Education and economic status promote individuality. The need to commit yourself to another person becomes less important. In many countries’ women get more space to have their own career and education. The male dominance is fading increasingly everywhere. One of the most important facts in history is the decrease of religious practice promoting male dominance with a following obedient female. Since only around 50+ years women begin to develop a strong sense of independence and are able to get a social position. The social stigma of a single woman is disappearing. One important reason why women more often chose for a single live position is due to the lack of “good” suitable men. Men have built philosophies, religions and believe that women should be followers and obedient to men. When they designed these moral repressive ideas, they did not consider the fact that women could develop above their level. Now many men get hit by their own ancestors. It is an ironical faith.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As one reads "Liberating the Bruised", one sees that it clearly explains spiritual warfare by way of God's Word, and it offers God's solutions for minor to major spiritual and emotional problems. Of course if minor problems are not dealt with, they can become major ones! This book well serves as (1) a text book for those desiring to learn biblical truths about wounded, fragmented personalities and the demonic---spiritual warfare, (2) a self-help counseling book, and (3) an instruction book for those desiring to learn how to help hurting people find freedom, peace and joy! Without doubt, precious souls who are desperate to be free can find freedom from their spiritual bondage! For victory can most surely come through the Lord Jesus as people trust and obey Him concerning His biblical teachings! The biblical truths in the book are a great help for any individual battling emotional, spiritual and behavioral issues. This includes couples with serious marital problems. A loving marriage comes (1) when husband and wife each humble himself/herself to deal with and confess his/her own sin issues, (2) reclaim all legal ground that Satan manipulates and claims by way of sinful behavior and any generational iniquities passed down, and (3) through their legal authority in Jesus Christ each can reclaim ground from the enemy and receive freedom, peace and joy. Then each can walk with the Lord victoriously and respect and love others the way Christ loves...unconditionally.

Download or read book Self and Motivational Systems written by Joseph D. Lichtenberg and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-02-11 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this sequel to Lichtenberg's Psychoanalysis and Motivation (TAP, 1989), the authors show how their revised theory of motivation provides the foundation for a new approach to psychoanalytic technique. The approach in Self and Motivational Systemsemphasizes a finely honed sensitivity to moment-to-moment analytic exchanges and an appreciation of which motivational system is dominant during that exchange. Throughout, the authors stress the creative power of psychoanalysis as a joint effort shaped by the intersubjective context of a particular analysand communicating and interacting with a particular analyst. At the heart of the analytic relationship is the analysand's expectation of evoking a vitalizing selfobject experience from the analyst and the analyst's expectation, in turn, of evoking a selfobject experience of efficacy from his or her work with the analysand.

Download or read book 9 Highland Road written by Michael Winerip and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2012-07-04 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before Julie Callahan came to the house at 9 Highland Road in Glen Cove, New York, she had spent a good part of her young life in mental hospitals, her mental and emotional coherence nearly destroyed by a childhood of sexual abuse. Fred Grasso, a schizophrenic, had lived in a filthy single-room occupancy hotel. At 9 Highland Road they and their housemates were given a decent alternative to lives in institutions or in the streets. It was a place in which some even found the chance to get better. This perfectly observed and passionately imagined book takes us inside one of the supervised group homes that, in an age of shrinking state budgets and psychotropic drugs, have emerged as the backbone of America's mental health system. As it follows the progress and setbacks of residents, their families, and counselors and notes the embittered resistance their presence initially aroused in the neighborhood, 9 Highland Road succeeds in opening the locked world of mental illness. It does so with an empathy and insight that will change forever the way we understand and act in relation to that world.

Download or read book Interdisciplinary Handbook of Trauma and Culture written by Yochai Ataria and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-09-15 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This lofty volume analyzes a circular cultural relationship: not only how trauma is reflected in cultural processes and products, but also how trauma itself acts as a critical shaper of literature, the visual and performing arts, architecture, and religion and mythmaking. The political power of trauma is seen through US, Israeli, and Japanese art forms as they reflect varied roles of perpetrator, victim, and witness. Traumatic complexities are traced from spirituality to movement, philosophy to trauma theory. And essays on authors such as Kafka, Plath, and Cormac McCarthy examine how narrative can blur the boundaries of personal and collective experience. Among the topics covered: Television: a traumatic culture. From Hiroshima to Fukushima: comics and animation as subversive agents of memory in Japan. The death of the witness in the era of testimony: Primo Levi and Georges Perec. Sigmund Freud’s Moses and Monotheism and the possibility of writing a traumatic history of religion. Placing collective trauma within its social context: the case of the 9/11 attacks. Killing the killer: rampage and gun rights as a syndrome. This volume appeals to multiple readerships including researchers and clinicians, sociologists, anthropologists, historians, and media researchers.
