Coaching Parents of Vulnerable Infants
Author: Mary Dozier
Publisher: Guilford Publications
ISBN: 1462539572
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
This is the authoritative presentation of Attachment and Biobehavioral Catch-Up (ABC), the widely disseminated, evidence-based home-visiting intervention for parents of infants who have experienced adversity, such as homelessness, neglect, or institutional care. Vivid case examples--including one that runs throughout the book--illustrate the importance of responsive parenting for helping children develop secure attachments and key regulatory capacities. Over the course of 10 coaching sessions incorporating extensive in-the-moment comments and video feedback, ABC enhances parents' ability to follow their children’s lead, nurture when children are distressed, and avoid frightening behaviors. In a readable, accessible style, chapters describe adaptations for different populations (high-risk birth parents, foster parents, parents who have adopted internationally, and parents of toddlers) and provide guidelines for training and implementation.

The Market In Babies
Author: Marian Quartly
Publisher: Monash University Publishing
ISBN: 1921867868
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 178
Book Description
The Market in Babies: Stories of Australian Adoption tells the history of adoption in Australia from its beginnings in the nineteenth century to its decline at the beginning of the twenty-first. The authors find that a market in babies has long existed. In the early years supply outstripped demand: needy babies were hard to place. Mid-twentieth century supply and demand grew together, with adoption presented as the perfect solution to two social problems: infertility and illegitimacy. Supply declined in the 1970s and demand turned to new global markets. Now these markets are closing, but technology provides new opportunities and Australians are acquiring babies through the surrogacy markets of India and the United States. As the rate of adoptions in Australia falls to an historic low, and parliaments across the country are apologising to parents and adoptees for the pain caused by past practices, this book identifies an historical continuum between the past and the present, and challenges the view that the best interests of the child can ever be protected in an environment where the market in babies is allowed to flourish. The authors of The Market in Babies are long-established scholars expert in the history of the family, welfare history and the making of public policy in Australia.

My A. B. C. Diary
Author: Lucila Munaretto
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1664147160
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 53
Book Description
My ABC is a heartening book by a unique girl, Lucila, who, outdaring medical odds, returned to stages even stronger, learning the real meaning of happiness. Lucila, at the peak of her dance career, was ran over by a truck, inducing her to two weeks in coma with major injuries. She shares how her faith in God has made an impact in her life and recovery, what she thinks a miracle looks like. Her key message is that the impossible is a matter of perspective. To achieve happiness, there are no secrets. The important question is “what for,” instead of “why.” Challenges will be transformed to strengths, and your life’s mission will come, and you’ll accomplish it naturally and effortlessly every day. The best compliment I’ve received was, “Lucila, you’re weird,” and I’d respond, “Whatever you do, just be you. It’s harder to remember those who have never been weird at some point.”
