Generation NeXt Parenting by Tricia Goyer Pdf

Get Real, Become Focused, Begin Thriving! You’re a generation of parents aspiring to excellence in every way, but you’re also just plain tired. You don’t need another parenting book promising perfection or another formula guaranteeing great kids; you need practical advice that shows how to deal with your and your children’s hearts. If you’re worn out from trying to do too much while giving your child every opportunity under the sun, if you’re striving to excel in every way but suffering from a lack of focus, this book is your solution. It will help you understand how your specific tendencies are common to your generation as a whole. You’ll embrace the positive qualities that enable you to parent for God’s glory. Lay a firm foundation and thrive as you raise up the next generation! Wanna Do It Right Without the Expert Advice? Looking for practical, doable tips and guidance for raising today’s kids? Want to help them love God and be all that they can be (even if they don’t join the Army)? If 70s and 80s bands (Run DMC), fashion (hot pink anything), and technology (music on cassette) bring back vivid youthful memories, Generation NeXt Parenting is the resource for you. Like secrets exchanged at recess with a trusted friend, this book offers helpful hints for raising your children during this exact time in history. Extensive research, input from hundreds of Gen X moms and dads, and a variety of Scripture references will help you navigate even the toughest parenting dilemmas. “Chock-full of useful quotes from experts and everyday parents, this is a grace-infused handbook for Gen Xers navigating the parenting journey.” -Mary E. DeMuth, Author of Building the Christian Family You Never Had “As a young father, I not only relate to Tricia’s message, but I’m very encouraged that there is a fantastic parenting resource for our generation.” -Jordan Rubin, Founder of Garden of Life and author of The Great Physician’s RX for Health and Wellness This book is designed like a magazine (not because you miss reading Seventeen, but because no parent has time to read a book cover to cover) and includes: • Quotes from fellow Gen X parents • Stats • Quizzes • Sidebars • Song lyrics • Study questions

Raising the Next Generation by Robert M. Solomon Pdf

The stress of parenting is real. Many modern parents rely on parenting books or websites produced by experts. These focus on the practical challenges of parenting. This book takes a different perspective, a spiritual one, by inviting parents and potential parents to study God’s Word and draw out valuable lessons for parenting. There are six sections, each dealing with some key aspect of parenting from a biblical perspective: ● How we are parented by God to be good parents ● Parenting reflections from the Old Testament ● Parenting lessons from the New Testament ● Contemporary challenges parents face and how to handle them ● Insights from family counselling ● Drawing on God’s grace and resources for godly parenting. Dealt with in this book are parental anxieties and struggles born from the challenges of the hurried, complex, and confusing world we live in, our need for intimacy with God, the encouragement of biblical wisdom, and the hope that comes from the God who loves us as our heavenly Father.

Future Generation by China Martens Pdf

China Martens started her pioneering mamazine The Future Generation in 1990. She was a young anarchist punk rock mother who didn’t feel that the mamas in her community had enough support, so she began publishing articles on radical parenting in an age before the internet. The anthology of her zine, The Future Generation: The Zine-Book for Subculture Parents, Kids, Friends & Others, was first printed in 2007 and has been out of print for many years. Covering sixteen years, it uses individual issues as chapters, focusing on personal writing, and retaining the character of a zine that changed over the years—from her daughter’s birth to teenagehood and beyond. We are proud to present a tenth-anniversary edition including a new afterword by China’s grown daughter, Clover. The Future Generation remains a timeless resource for parents, caregivers, and those who care about them. Though first published in the 1990s, many of the essays and observations—about parenting, children, and surviving in a hostile political climate—still ring true today. The next four years are going to be especially demanding for those trying to balance parenting, politics, and survival. We’re going to need the voices and experiences in The Future Generation now more than ever.

Parenting the Millennial Generation by David Allan Verhaagen Pdf

They have strong values—faith, family, tolerance, intelligence, and altruism among them. But, contrary to what one might guess, these people are not America's sage elders. This is the Millennial Generation. Born between 1982 and 2000, the oldest among them today are entering their 20s or in their teen years. They aim to rebel against society by cleaning it up, returning to old-fashioned values and relationships. Author Verhaagen describes why, nonetheless, parents are feeling more anxious and frazzled than ever before, even as they are faced with the task of raising what some predict will be our next hero generation. Verhaagen explains how research shows adults can help keep these young people on a positive path, stoke their ideals, and help them be resilient when the inevitable mistakes and obstacles arise. The Baby Boomers and older Gen Xers are parenting this new crew, aiming to ground them and instill great hope for the future. But Millennials face challenges greater than any generation faced before them. Many spend all or part of their childhood without a father in the home. Technology, including the Internet, is exposing them to adult material at increasingly young ages. They are subject to violent images that are more common than ever before in movies, television, and games. So parents still need to provide guidance. Verhaagen aims to help parents with research and advice, including how to teach determination, problem-solving, emotional smarts, and resilience. His text includes vignettes and his personal experience as a psychotherapist/father.

In this book, Dr Mark Dorgan, an author, educator and business consultant, with over 20 years experience: - explores the forces that have shaped the generations since 1945, - profiles each generation, including the Silent Generation, the Baby Boomers, Generation X, the Millennials and Gen-Z, with emphasis on their roles today and in the future, - examines the macro-trends shaping the future, including mobile, responsive technology, eco-trends and health, the Sharing Economy, immersive experience trends and the changing political order, and, - explores how politicians, businesses, educators and parents can best succeed in the next ten plus years. This book is a primer for any student of social trends and their impact on the way we live, work and run our society.
