Calling the Shots

Languages : en
Pages : 327
Book Description
An increasing number of parents are refusing vaccines, believing vaccines pose greater risks than benefits to their children. Given the certainty of the medical community that vaccines are safe and effective, many wonder how such parents, who are most likely to be white, have high levels of education, and have the greatest access to healthcare services and resources, could hold such beliefs? Reich has been following the issue of vaccine refusal for over a decade, and examines how parents who opt out of vaccinations see their decision: what they fear, what they hope to control, and what they believe is in their child's best interest. -- adapted from back cover

Book Description
As he nears his fifth birthday, Sam's curious dreams of a lost child begin to steal quietly into his waking state. Sam's mother, Grace, watches with growing fear the disturbing changes taking place in her charming, spirited son – the fighting at school, the bed-wetting, the meteor showers of defiance. Grace is determined to find out what lies behind Sam's nightmares, and the search will take her deeper and deeper into layers of love and bonding buried beneath the surface of the family, and into its molten heart. Cry Baby is a story about boyhood and motherhood, about what binds families, the past to the present, about suffocation and deliverance. It is at once a stinging satirical slap across the face of barren suburbia and a poignant hymn to the extraordinary beauty in ordinary lives.

Book Description
Dear parent, what do you want most for your child? Is it to get good grades? Maybe you want them to discover and develop their talents?Hello, my name is David T. Fagan. I am a father of eight kids with the three oldest being teenagers, and I have determined that what I want most for all my kids is for them to become 100 percent self-reliant. Meaning, I want them to be able to provide for themselves and create profitable opportunities for themselves. The second priority is almost equally as important to me.... I want my children to reach their full potential. Think about that. What would it feel like to know you helped your children become their best and most profitable self? What kind of joy might be realized for your family if your child experienced all their talents at the highest levels and developed new talents they never knew they were capable of? I was once asked a question that made me think. Here it is: Does my child's current education live up to my child's full potential? This led me to wonder whether the schools, teachers, and coaches are giving my children everything they need to transform their talents into profitable careers and businesses? These have become all too common questions that almost always end with failing answers. It was from this government and public failure that Guerrilla Parenting was created. This is an audiobook for you parents that would teach you the unconventional methods to help your kids monetize their talents. As the former CEO of Guerrilla Marketing, an author of several successful business books, recipient of multiple marketing awards, facilitator of many young entrepreneur events, and a regular guest on national TV shows, I give you Guerrilla Parenting.
