dabbe I love these books! 🩶🖤🩶 3d

TheBookgeekFrau @dabbe I've only read two of them, but both times they helped when I was feeling unsettled. It's nice to read uplifting words of people in similar situations and know you're not the only one. 🩵🩵 3d

dabbe @TheBookgeekFrau #truth Some could get a bit preachy (I'm not very religious), but I loved most of them. Plus, they usually were short, sweet, and made me feel better! 🩶🖤🩶 3d

Discipline Without Damage: How to Get Your Kids to Behave Without Messing Them Up | Vanessa Lapointe

Currently only through Part l but it‘s already such a good read.
This should read by everyone who deals with children.

Children need to be dependent on you, they should never question your ability to take care of them and their needs.
- the example for this was so interesting! >

AlaSkaat You walk into a doctor‘s office and get checked in. Everyone gets seen but you. You go up to the reception to ask when‘s your turn. They apologise and say they‘ve forgotten about you.

You sit down and wait, but you can no longer relax. You no longer trust that the receptionist will do her job. Next time you come, you will spend time making sure she does her job instead of trusting her to take care of it.

This Is So Awkward: Modern Puberty Explained | Cara Natterson, MD, Vanessa Kroll Bennett

pick

It seems unreal that I‘ll have a teenager in a few years! This book helped me prepare both my emotions and how to tackle tough conversations with my boys. The main goal is to inform and keep channels of communication open. I hope to approach this puberty stuff with humor and understanding. I‘ll need to revisit this book often, as it does a great job of defining each concept (ie-body hair), how it‘s changed over time and how to talk about it.

Centique I have a newly minted teenage boy! One thing ive found surprising is that he is quite comfortable talking about body stuff - if he brings it up first that is. Im not sure if its a generational thing or just my kid, but it has made those conversations much less awkward than i expected. Still got the teen argumentativeness however! Best wishes to you for the years to come xxx 1mo

Above Ground | Clint Smith

I love Clint Smith‘s writing. This includes some of his keen and straightforward social analysis, always with an eye on historical context. But also a lot of sweetness about young fatherhood.

MallenNC I love his writing too. I don‘t know much about poetry but I know his works for me. And of course

Christine @MallenNC Same! I enjoy reading poetry now and then and know what I like when I read it...but that's about it! 2mo

The Anxious Generation: How the Great Rewiring of Childhood Is Causing an Epidemic of Mental Illness | Jonathan Haidt

pick

This is a really important book that all parents and educators should read. It shows how the epidemic of mental illness stems directly from our shift from ‘play based‘ to ‘phone based‘ childhoods. The data and evidence in this book is truly mind blowing. I had not heard the term ‘sociogenic illnesses‘ before but it makes total sense to me and something I‘ve long suspected is happening. It‘s not all doom and gloom. There are solutions. Read it!

This book deserves all the attention it is getting. Every parent, every educator, and any person who has an adolescent in their life needs to read this book. I wish I could turn back the clock and do things differently with my children and technology, especially my youngest.

Cupcake12 This sounds really insightful x 2mo
