Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An insightful and powerful look at the magic of summer camp—and why it is so important for children to be away from home . . . if only for a little while. In an age when it’s the rare child who walks to school on his own, the thought of sending your “little ones” off to sleep-away camp can be overwhelming—for you and for them. But parents’ first instinct—to shelter their offspring above all else—is actually depriving kids of the major developmental milestones that occur through letting them go—and watching them come back transformed. In Homesick and Happy, renowned child psychologist Michael Thompson, PhD, shares a strong argument for, and a vital guide to, this brief loosening of ties. A great champion of summer camp, he explains how camp ushers your children into a thrilling world offering an environment that most of us at home cannot: an electronics-free zone, a multigenerational community, meaningful daily rituals like group meals and cabin clean-up, and a place where time simply slows down. In the buggy woods, icy swims, campfire sing-alongs, and daring adventures, children have emotionally significant and character-building experiences; they often grow in ways that surprise even themselves; they make lifelong memories and cherished friends. Thompson shows how children who are away from their parents can be both homesick and happy, scared and successful, anxious and exuberant. When kids go to camp—for a week, a month, or the whole summer—they can experience some of the greatest maturation of their lives, and return more independent, strong, and healthy.

Book excerpt: Friends, partners, and now lovers. If it was complicated before, it's even trickier now that Will has been assigned a case which guarantees he'll be working side-by-side with ex-boyfriend David Bradley. As for Taylor, newly recovered from his recent shooting and finally off desk duty, being reassigned a new partner—who seems as thrilled to be working with him as he is her—is just the start of his problems. Whoever has been leaving weird notes on his car windshield has graduated to sending him a dead cobra in a bottle of wine. Sure, DSS Agents Brandt and MacAllister have made a few enemies over the years, but until now it's never felt quite so personal. Taylor's insecurity about David Bradley and Will's uneasy suspicion Taylor isn't telling him everything he knows about his mysterious stalker puts them on shaky ground at the very moment a vengeful enemy is moving in for the kill.

Download or read book Happy Campers written by Audrey Monke and published by Center Street. This book was released on 2019-05-07 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Audrey "Sunshine" Monke, mother of five and camp owner-director, shares nine powerful parenting techniques-inspired by the research-based practices of summer camp-to help kids thrive and families become closer. Research has proven that kids are happier and gain essential social and emotional skills at camp. A recognized parenting expert, Audrey Monke distills what she's learned from thousands of interactions with campers, camp counselors, and parents, and from her research in positive psychology, to offer intentional strategies parents can use to foster the benefits of camp at home. Our screen-obsessed, competitive society makes it harder than ever to raise happy, thriving kids. But there are tried-and-true methods that can help. Instead of rearing a generation of children who are overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, and who struggle to become independent, responsible adults, parents can create a culture that promotes the growth of important character traits and the social skills kids need for meaningful, successful lives. Thousands of parents attest to the "magical" benefits of summer camp for their kids, noting their children return more joyful, positive, confident, and resilient after just a few weeks. But you can learn exactly what it takes to promote these benefits at home. Complete with specific ideas to implement the most effective summer camp secrets, HAPPY CAMPERS is a one of a kind resource for raising happy, socially intelligent, successful kids.

Download or read book On the Midnight Train written by Eva Fischer-Dixon and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2016-07-13 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If I could have a dollar for each time I heard the following questions: I detected an accent, where are you from? or How did you come to the United States or Refugee camp? You were really in a refugee camp? among other questions, I could have paid for a house in full from that money. Ever since I could remember I always wanted to come to the United States. This country was not just a dream for me; it was a reality that I wanted to accomplish before I reached age 25. The decision was easy knowing what I wanted since age 11, but leaving elderly parents behind was very difficult. However, I had parents who understood that I could not accomplish what I wanted to be, to become a writer in a country where if you were not a member of the Communist Party, your chances for success was minimal. I wanted to write things that did not please those who was part of the Communist Inquisition. I dared to escape from the poverty, the hypocrisy and oppression that were all around us. I was willing to pay the price of isolation, starvation or anything that would help me to come to America. And this is my story.

Download or read book I Don t Mind Waiting written by BeeGee Hill and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-05-11 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now really? Do relationships really work? Is there a formula that will help it last? According to Val, relationships “that worked” were a thing of the past. Val was a young lady who had experienced a few hardships in her life. After losing her father (whom she cherished) to cancer and was betrayed by the one she was settling for as the man of her dreams, she became bitter toward relationships. Of course, they worked for some, but it was truly unrealistic to think that there was someone out there for everyone. Val’s faith faltered, and she strayed away from God and the church, but after a couple years of backsliding, she found her way back and was now determined to do things right according to the plan that God intended for her life. After years of being a third wheel to one of her best friends, Toni, and her man, could it be that her future rested behind the wheel of a squad car? A man that looked THIS good was NOT going to be faithful (or was he)? And HIS insecurities and double standards might serve as a warning (or would they)? Val enjoys a lot of firsts with her newfound love, and the two enjoy each other’s company as they get to know one another. But is that enough? Trust issues and conflicts could place the relationship on hold, but counsel from the other bestie and others help them to see the error of their ways, and feisty Val recognizes that God will not leave her side if she only trusts Him. And yes, there IS a formula. It’s written right there in His Word (the Bible), and when it’s all said and done, Val doesn’t mind waiting! Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and He shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the Lord. (Psalm 27:14)
