Book excerpt: For many women in their 20's and 30's, the greatest professional hurdle they'll need to overcome has little to do with their work life. The most focused, confident, and ambitious women can find themselves derailed by a tiny little thing: a new baby. While more workplaces are espousing family-friendly cultures, women are still subject to a "parenting penalty" and high-profile conflicts between parenting and the workplace are all over the news: from the controversy over companies covering the costs of egg-freezing to the debate over parental leave and childcare inspired by Marissa Mayer's policies at Yahoo. Here's the Plan offers an inventive and inspiring roadmap for working mothers steering their careers through the parenting years. Author Allyson Downey, founder of weeSpring, the "Yelp for baby products,” and mother of two young children advises readers on all practical aspects of ladder-climbing while parenting, such as negotiating leave, flex time, and promotions. In the style of #GIRLBOSS or Nice Girls Don't Get the Corner Office, Here's the Plan is the definitive guide for ambitious mothers, written by one working mother to another.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As a mother of three, this book's practical road map for helping our kids learn independently is invaluable. This should be a must-read for all parents." --Jenna Bush Hager Drawing on extensive experience as classroom teachers and the directors of their highly regarded tutoring business, Abby and Brian address a range of common frustrations caused by homework. They answer the most pressing questions on every parent's mind: How much should I get involved, what does constructive help look like, and how can I help my child work independently? Taking the Stress out of Homework breaks down for parents exactly when and how to offer homework support. Whether your child's stress point is executive functioning--the ability to plan or organize--or a subject-specific struggle in math, reading, writing, or standardized test-preparation, Abby and Brian use real-life stories to provide individualized, actionable advice. At the center of Abby and Brian's philosophy is encouraging students to break free of the "let's get to the answer already so that we can be done with the assignment" mindset; they focus instead on a process-oriented approach that fosters engagement and self-sufficiency both in and out of school. Filled with expert tips about how to build executive functioning and content skills, Abby and Brian share stress-reducing best practices so homework not only supports what kids are learning, but also helps build confidence and skills that last a lifetime.

This book was released on 2021-02-03 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kids Get A's and B's When Their Dads Help Teach Them By: Patrick Joseph U. Eguogwu, Jr. Everyone thought seven-year-old John would not graduate from high school because his grades were very poor. His teachers used different methods to help him, but nothing worked. One of his teachers then figured out that little John was not getting help with his homework at home and that was why he wasn’t even doing his homework at all. After the teacher got his parents involved with John’s academics, his grades improved considerably. When John’s dad made it a duty to read to John and to teach him at home after school, John started getting A’s and B’s and that academic success continued to his college years. The author knew students in his school that were not doing well academically and, after speaking with them, the author realized that most of them were not being taught by a parent at home. He then advised some of them to tell their dads to be help them with their homework. When their dads got involved, these students started getting A’s and B’s. The author felt the push to educate kids and parents about the huge benefits to kids’ success when their dads help teach them. The book talked about different scenarios parents could use to get their kids to like reading, writing, and school.
