PEP - C: Preemptive Parenting by Contract - Creating Teen Successes
For young adolescents, transition from middle school to high school stirs up many emotions ranging from excitement and anticipation to fear and anxiety. Although some issues will dissipate quickly, at this stage in their development, teens tend to strive for individuality and identity, upsetting the apple cart in the way the family has related to each other until now. This is the time for parents to choose their battles wisely and foster loving, structural growth with their adolescent child.
In Let's Make a Contract: Getting Your Teen Through High School and Beyond, the author presents a new concept for helping manage family dynamics during this highly complex phase. It's called Preemptive Parenting by Contract (Pep-C) and, if followed closely, almost every issue teens face during their high school years will already have been discussed or at least be readily at hand.
The numerous contract templates in this book cover curfew, school attendance, grades, attire, cyberbullying, prom night, computer and cell phone use, borrowing the car, the college debate, and much more. Get ahead of the high school trends through preemptive parenting.

Описание:
This book tells the story of five interventionists who work the streets of some of Los Angeles' toughest neighborhoods. It articulates who they were and how they got to be who they are now. Each story has similarities and differences but each provides a close-up of a life most of us only see through the lens of Hollywood fantasy. This book is the reality behind that fantasy. It gives credit for the hard, dangerous and usually unsung work each of these individuals do.
This book utilizes data gathered over six months of following interventionist teams to show how their work assisted in instilling safety on the streets with qualitative and quantitative data. Crime reduction is discussed using data gathered, along with narrative examples. The book will show how community intervention reduces street violence and assists with community policing efforts.
Описание: How do you cope with wishes that don't come true?
Perhaps death or divorce crumpled your dreams of a bright future. Or maybe you are dealing with the fallout of a career failure or a wounded relationship or with deep longings for a certain kind of love or family that hasn't materialized.
What do you do with these losses?
Shattered Hopes, Renewed Hearts teaches you how to stop your blind pursuit of unrealistic wishes and instead, listen to the lessons your unfulfilled dreams have to tell you. Courageously mourn and let go of unrealistic wishes. Learn to pursue still deeper soul wishes that can come true. Dr. Ekey invites you to become involved-fully and passionately-in a real world with real people, where wishes really do come true.
