With so much confusion about the role of men in our society, it’s no wonder so many parents and teachers are asking questions about how to bring up boys. Why are so many boys in crisis? What qualities should we be trying to instill in young males? Our culture has vilified masculinity and, as a result, an entire generation of boys is growing up without a clear idea of what it means to be a man. In the runaway bestseller Bringing Up Boys, Dr. Dobson draws from his experience as a child psychologist and family counselor, as well as extensive research, to offer advice and encouragement based on a firm foundation of biblical principles.

My Nana's Voice
Author: Alicia McMahon
Publisher: Bookpatch LLC
ISBN: 9781642544688
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
Protagonist and first person narrator, Alicia McMahon begins her memoir later in her life with a description of her vision to produce a tribute book for her ailing Nana Murphy. Her Nana still lived in the village she grew up in, Foynes, County Limerick, Ireland. This leads to a very poignant conversation Alicia has with her Nana a few months later. Alicia then explains how life was growing up in a little Parrish in Ireland and shares her stories from hardships to shenanigans. By the time Alicia is 18 years old, she finds herself leaving Ireland due to a recession and brings us on her journey to the United States. Once in the U.S. she shares terrifying situations that she experiences as a young mother of two and how her "Crone Voice" has guided her throughout tough situations in her life there. Alicia's story is unusual in that, at one point in time she went from being homeless in a battered women's shelter with her two young daughters to working directly on Bill Gates personal CEO Summit, all within a short period of time. Throughout her journey, she helps the reader understand how she developed her own understanding of intuition (she calls it her Crone Voice) and how that aided her through her story. At the end of each chapter, Alicia shares a pertinent quote that reflects her strength/thoughts of that time in her life. After Alicia raised her two Daughters (Seánalee and Brennalynn) into adulthood, she now finds herself in an emotional quandary.

Pages : 210
Book Description
The Irish nana is a repository of family history, memory and lore. Sometimes, like the Italian nonna, she is also a 'walking cookbook', carrying the old knowledge of how things were best done.

These women taught their families the Irish traditions and habits of homemaking that survived for centuries, and are now almost gone. Now Alice herself is a nana too, and this book takes us through three generations and almost a century and a half. She explores the old and the new, the 'then' and 'now', the nana of yesteryear and of today, with her characteristic empathy and love.
