Book excerpt: In a tragic and shocking story of true crime, Peter Maas gives insight into how the brutal murder of a young wife by her husband sparked a nasty and threatening custody battle between the couple’s families. In 1984, the infant son of Kenneth and Teresa Taylor was left orphaned after Kenneth brutally murdered Teresa using a dumbbell to crack her skull. In the months that followed, an intoxicatingly traumatic battle for the infant’s custody between Kenneth’s parents and Teresa’s sister would destroy more lives than necessary. Shedding light on the motivations of a sociopathic killer, Peter Maas shares the gripping story of the Taylor family beginning with the murder of Teresa and progressing through the abduction of their child when the custody case went against the desires of Kenneth, leading to further incriminating actions, even as he was in jail after being convicted of murder. “A wrenching story with popular appeal.” — Library Journal

This book was released on 2024-01-07 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The inspiration for this handbook came from my personal experience of naming my children. As a parent, I found myself overwhelmed by the abundance of name options available and the pressure to choose the "perfect" name. Through my research and conversations with experts in the field, I discovered that there is no one right way to choose a name. Instead, it is about finding a name that has meaning and purpose for the parents and their child. This handbook is divided into several chapters, each exploring a different aspect of the naming process. The first few chapters focus on the importance of choosing a name with meaning and purpose, considering factors such as family heritage, cultural traditions, and the impact of technology and social media on names. Subsequent chapters examine the influence of popular culture, the significance of a child's name in shaping their identity, and the role of consultation with family and friends in making the naming decision.
