Book Description
With all the parenting information out there and the constant pressure to be the “perfect” parent, it seems as if many parents have lost track of one very important piece of the parenting puzzle: raising happy kids. Parenting today has gotten far too complicated. It’s never been the easiest job in the world, but with all the “parenting advice” parents are met with at every corner, it’s hard not to become bewildered. It seems that in the past it was a good deal simpler. You made sure there was dinner on the table and the kids got to school on time and no one set anything on fire, and you called it a success. But today everybody has a different method for dealing with the madness--attachment parenting, free-range parenting, mindful parenting. And who is to say one is more right or better than another? How do you choose? The truth is that whatever drumbeat you march to, all parents would agree that we just want our kids to be happy. It seems like a no-brainer, right? But in the face of all the many parenting theories out there, happiness feels like it has become incidental. That’s where The Happy Kid Handbook by child and adolescent psychotherapist and parenting expert Katie Hurley comes in. She shows parents how happiness is the key to raising confident, capable children. It’s not about giving in every time your child wants something so they won’t feel bad when you say no, or making sure that they’re taking that art class, and the ballet class, and the soccer class (to help with their creativity and their coordination and all that excess energy). Happiness is about parenting the individual, because not every child is the same, and not every child will respond to parenting the same way. By exploring the differences among introverts, extroverts, and everything in between, this definitive guide to parenting offers parents the specific strategies they need to meet their child exactly where he or she needs to be met from a social-emotional perspective. A back-to-basics guide to parenting, The Happy Kid Handbook is a must-have for any parent hoping to be the best parent they can be.

Author: Barbara Fulcher
Publisher: Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 1098035054
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 293
Book Description
This is a book that takes the reader back in time more than two thousand years and places them in a front-row seat to view the most influential life ever lived...the life of Jesus Christ. Taking great care to maintain accuracy, author Barbara Fulcher masterfully personalizes stories of the Bible by inserting fictional characters as the protagonist. By doing so, she transforms the story into a touching personal experience that is especially relatable to young readers. When most of us pass from this earth, we will not be remembered far beyond our burial date. But there are a few special individuals who live a life that touches others in a way that is never forgotten. Barbara Fulcher is one of those special few, and this book is but one piece of evidence solidifying her legacy. It is my honor to introduce you to God's Treasures: Through the Eyes of a Child and to its author. Barbara Fulcher is an evangelical Christian. She is an author for the first time at the age of ninety. Barbara is a wife, a musician, a teacher, a student of biblical history, and the matriarch of a family currently numbering thirty-one children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. But, most importantly to me, she is my mother. Now, read and enjoy God's Treasures: Through the Eyes of a Child, and experience how it will bring you closer to the person you need to know the most-Jesus Christ. -Russ Fulcher, United States Congressman
