Schwangerschaft & Elternschaft

How much video gaming is too much?At what age do you give a child a cell phone?How do you teach responsible use of texting and social media? Parenting has always been hard enough. In the age of the internet, it can seem overwhelming. There are too many decisions, and they change so rapidly that even well intentioned parents just can't keep up. Outgunned by the pace of change, many have simply given up. They hand their children electronic devices, and hope for the best. In Adrift in the Digital Age, Dr. Mehegan argues that this is a mistake. More than ever, today's children need guidance. Someone needs to filter the torrential flow of stimulation for this wired up generation. If parents don't do it, then who will? Starting with a review of the principles of clear and consistent behavior management, Dr. Mehegan demonstrates how parents can lay a foundation at young ages which they will be able to adapt to both the challenges of today and the variants of those challenges which are certain to be just around the corner. The internet is here to stay. It falls to parents to see that it is woven into the lives of their children in a manner consistent with the values of the family.

Das Tao Te King des Laotse ist neben der Bibel das meistveröffentlichte Buch der Welt und wird wegen seines philosophischen Tiefgangs und seiner praktischen Weisheit geschätzt. "Es kommt nur selten vor, dass es jemandem gelingt, einen solchen Klassiker zu verbessern ... und ihn der modernen Welt zum Geschenk zu machen. Eine solche Leistung bedarf eines Menschen von außerordentlicher Weisheit, Einsicht und Herzensgüte. William Martin ist ein solcher Mensch und dies ist ein solches Buch." Dan Millman"Kinder haben noch nie besonders gut auf das gehört, was ihre Eltern zu sagen haben", schreibt James Baldwin, "aber eines gelingt ihnen immer: sie nachzuahmen.""Die alten Lehren, die Geduld, Mitgefühl, Einfachheit und elterliche Achtsamkeit in den Vordergrund stellen, bieten Müttern und Vätern die Möglichkeit, im Stillen über sich selbst nachzudenken und dem authentischen Wesen ihrer Kinder gerecht zu werden." Virginia Beane Rutter
