Download or read book Stepmonster written by Wednesday Martin and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2011-01-21 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An honest and groundbreaking guide to understanding the complicated emotions that develop between stepmothers and children. When faced with often overwhelming challenges, what woman with stepchildren is unfamiliar with that “stepmonster” feeling? Half of all women in the United States will live with or marry a man with children. To guide women new to this role—and empower those who are struggling with it—Wednesday Martin draws upon her own experience as a stepmother. She's frank about the harrowing process of becoming a stepmother, she considers the myths and realities of being married to a man with children, and she counteracts the cultural notion that stepmothers are solely responsible for the problems that often develop. Along the way, she interviews other stepmothers and stepchildren and offers up fascinating insights from literature, anthropology, psychology, and evolutionary biology that explain the little-understood realities of this unique parent-child relationship and—in an unexpected twist—shows why the myth of the Wicked Stepmother is the single best tool for understanding who real stepmothers are and how they feel.

Download or read book Why We Act the Way We Do written by Patricia Danks and published by Patricia Danks. This book was released on 2013-10-31 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why we act the way we do; how we talk about it addresses communication difficulties in relationships. Using the couple relationship as her model, Dr. Danks illustrates that all communication is based in the behavior of the person attempting to communicate. Because so many are unaware of their own behavior and motivations, communication is ineffective. Part I defines behavior and the ways in which it manifests with different personalities; Part II allows the reader to communicate in an honest and non-threatening manner. Communication blunders are identified along with effective ways to avoid them. Ideal for families, teachers, coaches and anyone who supervises or prepares others for leadership.
