Download or read book Things I ve Said to My Children written by Nathan Ripperger and published by Ten Speed Press. This book was released on 2015-09-15 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An illustrated gift book that brings to life the universal parenting experience of saying strange and hilarious things to one's kids. As the father of five boys (all under age 10), graphic designer Nathan Ripperger has found himself saying some rather funny, absurd, and downright bizarre things to his children, from "Stop riding that penguin, we're leaving" to "I am NOT talking to you until you are wearing underwear." He created poster-like images for each and posted them online. The response from other parents was overwhelming. With Things I've Said to My Children, Ripperger has assembled around 80 of the funniest, weirdest, and most amusing sayings and paired them with full-color, designed images that bring these outrageously hysterical quotes to life. Covering the essential parenting topics like food, animals, don'ts, and of course, bodily functions, Things I've Said to My Children is a light-hearted illustrated reminder of the shared absurdity of parenthood. Especially for those parents who've ever found themselves uttering some variation of the line, "Please don't eat the goldfish crackers you've put in your butt."
Download or read book Tell Me Why My Children Died written by Charles L. Briggs and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2016-05-19 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tell Me Why My Children Died tells the gripping story of indigenous leaders' efforts to identify a strange disease that killed thirty-two children and six young adults in a Venezuelan rain forest between 2007 and 2008. In this pathbreaking book, Charles L. Briggs and Clara Mantini-Briggs relay the nightmarish and difficult experiences of doctors, patients, parents, local leaders, healers, and epidemiologists; detail how journalists first created a smoke screen, then projected the epidemic worldwide; discuss the Chávez government's hesitant and sometimes ambivalent reactions; and narrate the eventual diagnosis of bat-transmitted rabies. The book provides a new framework for analyzing how the uneven distribution of rights to produce and circulate knowledge about health are wedded at the hip with health inequities. By recounting residents' quest to learn why their children died and documenting their creative approaches to democratizing health, the authors open up new ways to address some of global health's most intractable problems.

Download or read book Let My Children Go written by E. Ray Moore and published by Ambassador-Emerald International. This book was released on 2002-05 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: School shootings, drugs, promiscuity, secular humanism, socialist indoctrination -- it's time to remove kids now! American schools are the best funded in the world, yet out of 41 nations, American students consistently rank near, or at the bottom in mathematics, physics and science. Despite their failings more than 80% of evangelical Christians place their children in government (public) schools, exposing them to physical and moral danger on a daily basis. One of the first things missionaries abroad do, is to start Christian schools and home schools, to tutor their converts, yet in America, most Christians allow their children to be brainwashed by the public schools' New Age, socialist agenda. Education belongs to the family first, with assistance from the church, but now the government has been permitted to usurp this vitally important role. The biblical instruction of our children may be the thrust that God could use to restore American society and revive the nation. A fresh obedience by the church, to its God-ordained role in education, may be the catalyst for a new Great Awakening. - Back cover.
