Paperback. Condizione: Good. Recent statistics from the U.S. Census Bureau show there are over 9 million single mothers in the United States. For every mother recently finding herself single or new moms learning how to raise their first child by themselves, there are countless things any mother will need to know. Single motherhood presents innumerable situations that are much harder to handle without the helping hands of a second parent nearby. This book is for every mother who is learning how to raise children on her own. Regardless of how you came to be a single mom -- whether it was through divorce, the end of a relationship, surrogacy, adoption, unplanned pregnancy, or the death of a spouse -- this book will walk you through the information you need to know to help you and your child adjust to a new lifestyle. The book covers what to do when pregnant and single and how to rely on your family and friends for support and help. You will learn the basics of early Child care, including what a child needs in his or her first year, from breastfeeding and diapers, to clothing and travel. You will learn what to expect as your child grows, including the early years of school and the problematic teenage years. This book teaches you how to take care of yourself in addition to your children, which includes getting the rest you need and working you way back into dating. You will learn how to prepare yourself for the sacrifices you will be forced to make and how to handle financial matters while raising a child alone. Even the difficult topics are covered, such as the first times you must discuss with your child why his or her father is not present. You will learn when you can fill in as a father figure, when you cannot, and what you can do to provide the male influence and support children need during those formative years. If your child's father is involved, this book will teach you how to work with him. You will learn how to raise a boy as a single mother and find positive role models for your children.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. It is so easy to become a parent that it can happen by accident. So why is raising disciplined and happy children so difficult? Part of the answer comes from the often confusing and conflicting advice heaped upon new parents, especially those extreme views that are pushed particularly forcefully. One side urges protecting children's self-esteem even during misbehavior, in the interests of raising happy children. The other side insists that any noncompliance must be dealt with swiftly and harshly, to assure children are taught obedience. While most parents find little comfort from either extreme, research shows that in practice, punishment is the automatic reaction of most parents to persistently unacceptable behavior -- even though they recognize that punishment does not achieve lasting compliance. Over several decades, Child Psychologist Jerry Adams developed and refined a class for parents to deal with such confusion, basing his approach on rigorously established principles of behavior change which he adapted to the everyday lives of the families he served. In response to requests from parents for a handy reference, Dr. Adams wrote How to Raise Disciplined and Happy Children. In it he describes his comprehensive strategy for guiding children to meet parental expectations and to develop the age-appropriate self-discipline necessary for security and happiness. The book was written for busy parents, parents like you, raising children of all ages, types of behavior challenges, and circumstances. From this book you will learn: -To recognize that truly effective discipline is achieved through positive response by parents and that discipline is not synonymous with punishment; -To recognize ways your discipline may actually work against your own intentions, and how to reverse the process in order to meet your goals for your family; -How to tailor and maintain a structured program to address your specific goals and concerns; -How to extend your influence to times when your children are away from you; -How to eliminate inappropriate behavior in a way that does not undermine your other efforts; and -How to adapt the approach to your specific needs, through detailed illustrations from other families who have struggled with a wide-variety of challenges. Dr. Adams, licensed to practice psychology in California, served as lead psychologist for twenty-five years in a large non-profit health maintenance organization where he specialized in assisting children and their parents. He is married and has two sons and two grandchildren. Adams, Dan (illustratore).…
