Woman to Woman Wisdom

Inspiration for Real Life

By: Bettie Youngs,Linda Caldwell Fuller,Donna Schuller

Whether your heart is burdened or bursting with joy, nothing satisfies quite like talking things over with another woman. Regardless of the paths our lives take, all women are "sisters"-we speak a common language; we share a universal bond. Because the hopes and dreams that both burden and give flight to a woman's heart dwell within all of us, we create relationships that are intensely rich, precious and prized. Thus, we comfort and encourage each other; we help each other through life's ups and downs; we know each other's experiences as if they were our own; we are a blessing to each other. As this book of beautiful, inspirational life lessons reveals, sharing the experiences of our lives imbues us with a wisdom the soul reveres: Nothing happens without God's permission.

Stress and Your Child

Helping Kids Cope with the Strains and Pressures of Life

By: Bettie B. Youngs

GIVE YOUR CHILDREN BACK THEIR CHILDHOOD. We like to think of childhood as a carefree, relaxed time of life, but the truth is, children today experience more stress than ever before: parents' fast-paced lifestyles, the frequent breakup of families, urban crime, schools in turmoil, and a host of other problems. However, according to Bettie B. Youngs, Ph.D., Ed.D, one of America's most admired experts on child psychology, children--by mastering skills of coping and self-awareness--can actually draw vitality from stress and channel it to promote health, fitness, and self-esteem. Stress and Your Child helps parents understand the pressures that their children face and explores the essential ways to reduce, manage, and prevent stress from birth to age twenty. Dr. Youngs leads parents through each stage of their child's emotional and social development and teaches them: -- How to recognize the physical and emotional signs of stress in children -- How to understand school-related stress, including social pressures, personal safety, and test-taking -- How parental stress affects children--and what parents can do to alleviate t -- How teaching kids self-esteem and emotional honesty can help them cope wth stress -- How diet, physical activity, and realistic schedules can help to minimize stress in children Stress and Your Child is an invaluable parenting guide. No family can afford to be without it!
