Schwangerschaft & Elternschaft

A very well written and concisely structured book that is easily used as a reference guide to culturally constructing the path that leads one back to an indigenous physical and mental place of living. With compelling words that urge you to not only look at the bigger picture, but at the global paradigm in which you will find yourself, your strengths, weaknesses, current situations and the potential to change it, the reader is equipped with the knowledge, wisdom and understanding of how to make that shift. This book engages whosoever reads it, insisting that no stone is left unturned when addressing the social constructs of the 'mechanical village'. There is nowhere to hide from the words that unfold and transcend gender, race, intellectual ability, age or social status.

One fine day I was sincerely struggling to explain the term "solidarity" to my child, and it occurred to me to ask OpenAi's newest publicly available artificial intelligence chatbot, ChatGPT how I may explain the concept to a 3-year old boy. The results opened my eyes and I started wondering how generative AI might help me in other aspects of parenting as well.What followed was months of shamelessly prompting ChatGPT at their visual art AI, Dall-E for questions ranging from the most basic things to building connections that I scarcely believed. So I put together some of the work I have been doing, and my hope is that is raises some questions for yourself as you consider how these powerful tools might add something to your toolbelt.What I hope to share with you in this book is two-fold.Six short chapters where I will try and demonstrate some of the moments that helped me as a father, and how I imagine these tools might help us even more as they develop and improve.I will share three blog posts I wrote while in the throes of early parenthood. These posts are titled "Story Time" for clarity and they appear every two chapters.The Contents of the Book:IntroductionStory Time #1: I didn't want to love anything this muchChapter 1: What in the hell does AI have to do with parenting?Chapter 2: Answering the "Why"sStory Time #2: Tips for a dad wearing his babyChapter 3: Building uniquely creative connectionsChapter 4: Using AI generated art to visualize ideas and have some funStory Time #3: The incredibly sad moment you realize you're a nobodyChapter 5: Helping you through some of the loneliest experiences as a parentChapter 6: A little healingConclusion

Mit dem Wort und bei meinen Vorträgen über Kindesperspektive erlebe ich die überwiegende Zeit Schweigen und Betroffenheit, denn über was ich spreche, betrifft uns alle, unsere eigene Kindheit, die wir längst zu vergessen geglaubt haben: "... für mich drückt dies sehr deutlich aus, welches persönliche Verhältnis wir Erwachsenen zu unserer eigenen Kindheit sowie zu unseren Kindern haben müssen. Zum anderen wird aber auch der Umstand offenbar, wie wenig ein Kind als Mensch mit Rechten ausgestattet ist. Wie unbewusst verletzend muss es für uns als Kind [gewesen] sein, unter so wenig bewusster Wahrnehmung als kleiner Mensch aufwachsen zu müssen ..." "... als Vater genieße ich die Kindesperspektive, denn mein Leben ist dadurch ruhiger, sachlicher und beim menschlichen Miteinander ... auch wertvoller geworden. Meine Geschwindigkeit habe ich heruntergeschraubt und an die Größe und das Alter meiner Kinder angepasst. Von der Kindesperspektive könnten wir alle profitieren ..." Jedem steht der Zugang zur Kindesperspektive offen, denn niemand kam als Erwachsener auf diese Welt. Dieses Heft soll eine erste Hilfe zur Thematisierung für uns selbst sein.

Unbewusste seelische Regungen stehen im Zentrum der Entwicklung des kindlichen Gewissens. Wer diese verstehen und den Kindern erzieherisch oder therapeutisch helfen möchte, muss sich in ihre Art, zu denken und Erlebnisse zu verarbeiten, hineinversetzen können. Hans Zulliger, der bedeutende Schweizer Kinderpsychotherapeut, Erziehungsberater und Psychoanalytische Pädagoge, analysiert Wege und Irrwege der Gewissensbildung anhand konkreter Fallgeschichten. Besonderen Fokus legt er auf die Einbettung der Gewissensbildung in die Erziehung zur Liebesfähigkeit, ferner auf fehlgeleitete Gewissensreaktionen wie Geständniszwang, Selbstbestrafungstendenzen, Zwanghaftigkeit, Pseudodebilität und Bandenbildung.Zulligers Werk über den Umgang mit dem kindlichen Gewissen liegt hier in einer Neuausgabe, eingeleitet und mit einem Editionsbericht des Herausgebers Reinhard Fatke, vor.

Helmuth Figdor zeigt, wie Eltern im Trennungsfall ihren Kindern helfen können, wie die angesichts neuer Partner*innen der Eltern auftretenden Probleme zu lösen sind und auf welche Weise es Therapeut*innen und Berater*innen gelingt, die Eltern zu befähigen, ihren Kindern die notwendige Hilfe auch wirklich geben zu können. Der Autor geht der brennenden Frage nach, ob eine Scheidung nicht auch positive Spätfolgen zeitigen könne - und zwar nicht nur im Vergleich mit Kindern aus Konfliktfamilien, sondern auch verglichen mit Kindern aus sogenannten intakten Familien.Figdor versteht es, den Leser*innen mit viel Einfühlungsvermögen und durch eine lebendige und verständliche Sprache das subjektive Erleben, die komplexen innerpsychischen Prozesse und die mitunter schwierigen zwischenmenschlichen Beziehungskonstellationen nahezubringen.

Miriam Summers untersucht in ihrer interdisziplinär angelegten Studie die Erfahrungen von Eltern zu früh geborener Kinder. Frühgeburt erweist sich als Erfahrung, die von Abwesenheit und Leerstellen geprägt ist, wodurch das sinnhafte Einordnen, Erzählen und Verarbeiten des Erlebten nur schwer möglich ist. Summers verbindet medizinisches Wissen über Frühgeburtlichkeit mit kulturwissenschaftlichen Ansätzen, um diese Leerstellen in den Narrativen der Eltern aufzuzeigen.Die Autorin gibt Einblicke in die Lebenswirklichkeiten der Eltern, die vielschichtige Deutungsangebote bieten und so Ansätze zur Verbesserung der Patient*innenversorgung, Anknüpfungspunkte für die Versorgungsforschung sowie Grundlagen für die Konzeption und Weiterentwicklung von Präventionsmaßnahmen ermöglichen.
