Download or read book Successful Family Language Policy written by Mila Schwartz and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-12-12 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the forefront of research in the emerging field of family language policy. This is the first volume to explore the link between family language policy, practice and management in the light of state and community language policy in more than 20 ethno-linguistic communities worldwide. Contributions by leading scholars from eight countries and three continents offer insights in how family language policy might be interpreted from various theoretical perspectives, using innovative methodologies. In particular, the authors present novel data on successful family language practices such as faith-related literacy activities and homework sessions, as well as management, including prayer, choice of bilingual education, and links with mainstream and complementary learning, which permit the realization of language ideology within three contexts: immigrant families, inter-marriage families, and minority and majority families in conflict-ridden societies.

Download or read book Parenting in Transracial Adoption written by Jane Hoyt-Oliver Ph.D. and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2016-02-12 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An essential resource for transracially adoptive parents and the professionals who serve them, this book offers practical strategies for helping a transracially adopted child through the challenges he or she may face. Anchored in a qualitative study of parents who have adopted children identified as being of a different race, this book draws from real-life experiences to raise and respond to questions that arise before, during, and after transracial adoption. Its goal: to help adoptive parents (and child welfare professionals) understand the underlying racial challenges in a transracial adoption so they can help their children cope. The book addresses questions from the obvious—for example, how to respond to comments from family and community members—to the practical—how a Caucasian mother can learn to help her African American daughter groom her hair. Topics include parental understanding of race while growing up, parental understanding of the challenges within the community, and communicating within the adoptive family. The book also shares advice from practitioners about preparing and supporting families in transracial adoption. A highlight of this book is a chapter written by three adult adoptees who grew up within transracial families. Equipped with the information in this helpful volume, readers will be prepared to parent in ways that empower, rather than impede, their child's social, emotional, and identity development. This book will enable children welfare professionals to better help and support parents involved in these processes.

Download or read book Two Worlds written by Berlinda Ivin and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2010-03-18 with total page 663 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There arent too many humans who go through their daily lives aware that there are two worlds here, the human existence and the Demons. Demon are everywhere, some even live amongst humans. There are only two species that are made, Vampire and Lamiahaem, the others, Jorgenhan, Changelings, Sirens, Casanovas, Witches and Warlocks are born or hatched, and they have normal life cycles. Magic plays a big part in our world, there are many humans who find that they can make things happen without being able to explain these happenings, the ones that are strong are generally found and recruited into our world, by the Guard. We had visited with many of these Witches and Warlocks. One family in particular always stood out, the Howard family. Their magic was powerful; nothing had ever measured up to them in all of my years. The matriarch of the family, decided not to join us, she stayed in the human world. Her granddaughters though we would watch from a distance. The Guard are soldiers for the Elders. There are seven Elders, in each sector, and there are three sectors, that keep the world covered. The reason there are seven is to ensure that all main Demons are represented. It is very rare that they ever get together, it has only happened once in my lifetime and that was in the very beginning when they first came to be. The Elders are our law; they are the ones who stop all unnecessary murders/slaughter being done to humans by our kind. They keep harmony. There is only one punishment, imprisonment followed by death. In our sector the lead Elder is my maker, my father, Elder Thomas Carter, he is a Lamiahaem. Lamiahaem are very passionate Demons, if we were not part of the Guard we would be living peacefully in our large family groups. Our species are not naturally aggressive, we have had to learn to adapt to a violent world. We are made and we make our partners, these are always humans that have magical gifts. When we meet that partner it is for life, this is natural for us. It is hard to explain the magnetic pull that you have when you first meet your mate; this love is also experienced by the human. There is only one mate for you, if that is denied you will recover and eventually meet another, but it can take some time. I have been Lamiahaem since 1554, my name is Simon. My father Thomas Carter lost his mate in a fight with vampire before he made me. He still cannot explain why he felt the need to change me, only to say that he noticed my gift of being able to feel illness and injuries and to know how to heal. Father believed that I would be useful to his world. We were in Newcastle in 1635, I was with the Guard. There were Renegade Vampire feeding off humans that had the plague, it appeared their affected blood was something like a drug to them. Even though these humans were going to die, we were still there to stop them from being slaughtered. That was when I seen the woman who would later become my wife, Julie, she had shoulder length light brown hair and sad brown eyes, the feelings I had were instant. Her eyes haunted me every second from the moment I seen her. It wasnt just sexual desire it was a desire to look after her, to be there for her, to never leave her. There were obstacles that I had to overcome, but in 1637, I made her my wife. After she was changed we discovered that Julie could sense feelings. My life now had purpose, she was everything, and she felt the same for me. Together we worked at healing both Demons and Humans. Normally that is where it would stop, we change our mate, but Julie and I were different. In 1665, the plague had hit London. The Vampire returned and so did the Guard. Julie had noticed a young man who was angry, lonely and deeply upset with himself. His family became ill with the plague, Julie and I nursed them until their eventual deaths. The young man, Jonathon became more emotional and was on a path of self destruction, he had an ability that he
Download or read book Refugee Countdown written by Bob Cowin and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2019-12-02 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Refugee Countdown presents the questions and dilemmas ordinary people faced in deciding whether to sponsor refugees and how to go about doing so. It’s an insider’s story of what actually happened, rather than an outsider’s prescription of what is supposed to happen. It relates aspects of the refugee crisis and the church that challenge North American stereotypes. Blocked from bringing Syrian refugees into the United States, members of a Seattle church help a family enter Canada, instead, raising enough funds to support them for a year while they learn English and a new culture. Refugee Countdown describes the project’s origin in 2016 and the evolution of a partnership with the Canadian church that became the formal refugee sponsor. It portrays the learning, waiting, and preparations over a two-year period until the family is finally cleared to leave their place of exile in Lebanon. The story is told from the perspective of the Canadian partners and ends with the family’s arrival in Vancouver. The focus is on the experiences of the sponsors, not those of the Orthodox Christian refugees. Along with identifying the broad range of considerations in resettling refugees, Refugee Countdown touches on the numerous resources and support services available. It presents a fuller and more balanced framework for thinking about refugees than appears in much political discourse, and shares a warm story of developing friendships and bumps along the way. The underlying theme is that refugee sponsorship should be about more than just rescuing hurting people, especially when resettlement is a mere drop in the bucket of the world’s displaced peoples. A successful sponsorship is reciprocal, enlarging the worldviews, humanity, and skill sets of the sponsors. And from the sponsors, these benefits ripple into the broader community.
Download or read book The Family Beach House written by Holly Chamberlin and published by Kensington Books. This book was released on 2015-06-01 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Multiple generations gather at a beloved summer house—wondering who will inherit it next—in this “dramatic and moving” novel (Booklist). Some houses have a personality of their own. Larchmere is that kind of place—a splendid, sprawling home with breathtaking views that open to briny Atlantic air and seabirds’ calls. It’s where Tilda McQueen O'Connell grew up and now vacations each year, and where she and her siblings—Adam, Hannah, and Craig—are commemorating the tenth anniversary of their mother’s passing. But instead of the bittersweet but relaxing reunion Tilda expected, she finds chaos. Her father’s plan to marry a younger woman has thrown the fate of the beach house into uncertainty. For Tilda, the stakes seem the highest. Alone and vulnerable two years after her husband’s death, she sees Larchmere as not just a cherished part of her history, but her eventual refuge from the world. Faced with losing that legacy, Tilda must embrace an unknown future. And all the McQueens must reconcile their shared, sometimes painful past—and learn how to love one another even when it means forging a life apart. This poignant, evocative novel sweeps you into the picturesque town of Ogunquit, Maine, where a family in flux explores their ties to a beautiful beach house, and to each other. “Explores questions about the meaning of home, family dynamics and tolerance.”—Bangor Daily News “Provides a touristy taste of Maine's seasonal attractions.”—Publishers Weekly “A novel for all seasons.”—The Maine Sunday Telegram
Download or read book Linguistic Diasporas Narrative and Performance written by Sarah O'Brien and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-07-03 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the present-day Irish Diaspora in Argentina, using oral narrative and a sociolinguistic theoretical framework to draw out the features that define contemporary Hiberno-Argentine identity. The author analyzes the spoken memories and discourses of Irish-Argentine descendants to trace the socio-political evolution of a bilingual, bicultural community from World War II to the present day. In so doing, O’Brien reveals a legacy of emigration that is without precedent in the global Irish Diaspora, and which is deeply relevant to today’s global Irish citizenry in its challenging of preconceived notions of what it is to be Irish in the New World. As well as contributing to understandings of an immigrant linguistic journey over three generations, the book also provides a vital ethnographic portrait of an Irish descendant community that is acutely aware of its vulnerability and invisibility in an increasingly pluralistic South American society. This book will appeal to an interdisciplinary audience including scholars of migration, oral history, folklore, bilingualism, memory, sociolinguistics, narrative performance and Irish Diaspora studies.

Download or read book The Successful Family Business written by Edward D. Hess and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2005-11-30 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over 80% of the businesses in the United States are family-owned and managed. From the corner deli or barbershop to global empires in brewing, media, and cleaning products, family businesses embody the entrepreneurial spirit that drives innovation and economic growth and that represents the hopes and dreams of millions for independence, self-sufficiency, and wealth. And yet the track record for entrepreneurial businesses is poor: over three-quarters will fail during the first five years and only 10% will survive a decade. Family business statistics show that fewer than one-third pass succesfully to a second generation, often the result of insufficient planning. Drawing from numerous in-depth examples (both positive and negative), Edward Hess offers a fascinating glimpse into the dynamics of family business management and specific strategies to promote the health of the enteprise. A comprehensive guide, The Successful Family Business covers the spectrum of topics from creating a family values statement and code of conduct to resolving conflicts among siblings to managing transitions in leadership and the potential sale of the business. Other issues include: defining perks and benefits (for family and non-family members), working with the board of directors, and going public. Hess concludes with a series of operating rules that apply to every family business and a listing of practical references and resources.
Download or read book Don Drummond written by Heather Augustyn and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2013-08-03 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a comprehensive biography of a brilliant musician who forever shaped the course of ska, reggae, and popular music worldwide, only to take the life of his lover and in so doing, destroy his career at the age of 30. In his short life Don Drummond created an enduring legacy despite poverty, class separation, mental illness, racial politics, and the exploitation of his work. The words of Drummond's childhood friends, classmates, musicians, medical staff, legal counsel, and teachers enliven this story of his "unusual mind." They recall the early days in the recording studio, playing the instrumental backup for Bob Marley and others, and the nights in the Rasta camps where musicians burned the midnight oil and more. They remember the gyrations of his lover, Margarita, the Rumba Queen, as she tantalized audiences at Club Havana; tell what happened that tragic night when Drummond stabbed Margarita four times; reveal details of the trial (delayed more than a year as Drummond was ruled mentally unfit) and offer insights into Drummond's death in a mental asylum at age 35.
