Self Esteem A Family Affair
Author: Jean Illsley Clarke
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 161649140X
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 214
Book Description
Serving as a source of parental support, this book provides a range of imaginative and effective suggestions for dealing with each family member in ways that nourish self-esteem for all involved. Strong self-esteem is a critical ingredient for human happiness--and its development begins at home in the nurturing interactions between children and adults. Clarke's unique approach to building self-esteem begins with her belief that this is indeed a "family affair." Rather than offering collection of dictatorial "should," Self-Esteem: A Family Affair instead serves as a source of parental support, providing a broad range of imaginative and effective suggestions for dealing with individual family members in ways that nourish self-esteem for all involved.Throughout her book, Clarke encourages parents to claim their strengths and to trust their judgment as they make decisions about appropriate child care. Recognizing, too, that kids' needs are best met by adults whose own needs have not been neglected, Clarke offers a range of creative and workable options for parents to build the self-esteem of children while also caring for their emotional needs.Jean Illsley Clarke, author of Hazelden's Growing Up Again: Parenting Ourselves, Parenting Our Children, is a writer and an internationally recognized parent educator who specializes in the areas of parenting, self-esteem, family dynamics, and adult children of alcoholics. She currently directs the Self-Esteem Center, which she founded in 1975, and lives in Plymouth, Minnesota.

Book Description
Matt's father has been the toast of the New York tabloids for decades. Between his shady business deals, his affairs, and his multiple marriages, Matt's father gives them plenty to talk about. Matt, however, avoids celebrity as much as he can. He just wants to be left alone to study and to teach. When Matt's older half-sister dies without a will, the state decides to award him custody of her three children. They have an uncle who loves them, and Matt didn't even know that Stephanie had kids, but the judge feels that an omega would provide a more "nurturing" environment than an unmated alpha. When Kevin's brother and sister-in-law die in a car accident, the court doubles his grief by awarding custody of his nieces and nephews to one of Stephanie's brothers. It doesn't seem to matter that Stephanie hated her family as much as Kevin does; no, this guy's an omega, so he gets the kids. Kevin is determined to hate this new uncle, especially when he realizes that this alleged omega has never cared for a child or changed a diaper in his life. It doesn't matter that Matt is hot; he's useless just like the rest of his family. Except... Matt does seem to want to put the kids' needs first. When he asks for Kevin's help in shielding the children from his father's excesses, Kevin can't very well say no. As defending the kids throws the pair into one another's orbit, they're inexorably drawn together. They soon find that their nieces and nephew aren't the only ones targeted by Matt's father's thirst for fame, fortune and notoriety. Will Matt and Kevin get swept up in an old man's machinations, or will family and love triumph?
