Mamaleh Knows Best by Marjorie Ingall Pdf
We all know the stereotype of the Jewish mother: Hectoring, guilt-inducing, clingy as a limpet. In Mamaleh Knows Best, Tablet Magazine columnist Marjorie Ingall smashes this tired trope with a hammer. Blending personal anecdotes, humor, historical texts, and scientific research, Ingall shares Jewish secrets for raising self-sufficient, ethical, and accomplished children. She offers abundant examples showing how Jewish mothers have nurtured their children’s independence, fostered discipline, urged a healthy distrust of authority, consciously cultivated geekiness and kindness, stressed education, and maintained a sense of humor. These time-tested strategies have proven successful in a wide variety of settings and fields over the vast span of history. But you don't have to be Jewish to cultivate the same qualities in your own children. Ingall will make you think, she will make you laugh, and she will make you a better parent. You might not produce a Nobel Prize winner (or hey, you might), but you'll definitely get a great human being.

The Book of Jewish Values by Rabbi Joseph Telushkin Pdf
Rabbi Joseph Telushkin combed the Bible, the Talmud, and the whole spectrum of Judaism's sacred writings to give us a manual on how to lead a decent, kind, and honest life in a morally complicated world. "An absolutely superb book: the most practical, most comprehensive guide to Jewish values I know." —Rabbi Harold Kushner, author of When Bad Things Happen to Good People Telushkin speaks to the major ethical issues of our time, issues that have, of course, been around since the beginning. He offers one or two pages a day of pithy, wise, and easily accessible teachings designed to be put into immediate practice. The range of the book is as broad as life itself: • The first trait to seek in a spouse (Day 17) • When, if ever, lying is permitted (Days 71-73) • Why acting cheerfully is a requirement, not a choice (Day 39) • What children don't owe their parents (Day 128) • Whether Jews should donate their organs (Day 290) • An effective but expensive technique for curbing your anger (Day 156) • How to raise truthful children (Day 298) • What purchases are always forbidden (Day 3) In addition, Telushkin raises issues with ethical implications that may surprise you, such as the need to tip those whom you don't see (Day 109), the right thing to do when you hear an ambulance siren (Day 1), and why wasting time is a sin (Day 15). Whether he is telling us what Jewish tradition has to say about insider trading or about the relationship between employers and employees, he provides fresh inspiration and clear guidance for every day of our lives.

I Saw an Angel in the Stone and I Carved to Set it Free by Doug Whitener Pdf
The imagery of a sculptor chipping away to free an angel from the stone suggests the idea that children have "miraculous human" qualities that can be released if a sculptor takes the time to free the child. In this book Doug Whitener asserts that parents and teachers are the lead sculptors who can help free children to live meaningful and responsible lives. Mr. Whitener draws upon forty-five years of experience as a parent and as an educator to outline key child guidance ideas. The reader is treated to over forty stories that illustrate principles from real life events in homes and schools. The near death experiences Mr. Whitener has had with cancer have caused him to celebrate every moment he has had as an educator of children. In each chapter the reader is invited to pause and reflect about his or her opportunities to appreciate childhood and to help children "Strengthen their Wings." Key child development concepts in the book include the following:* unconditional love* critical learning activities* empathy development and relationship building* responsibilities, empowerment, and child uniqueness* family mission statement Key child discipline concepts in the book include the following:* understanding yourself as an adult, positive modeling, and support systems* defining discipline as a teaching-learning process focused upon the development of inner discipline* determining expectations, teaching expectations, and building competencies* understanding the purpose of misbehavior* meaningful logical consequences* restorative justice* the intensive-care child This book is a must-read for parents, teachers, guidance counselors, school psychologists, family therapists, and school principals. "This amazing resource not only supports parents and teachers with numerous fantastic strategies to effectively provide discipline and love to students; it is written through Doug's remarkable life experiences. You will learn how to successfully incorporate respectful, solution-oriented approaches to challenges faced in the classroom and home. You'll discover the power of fundamental principles of child discipline through frequent real-world examples—ready for immediate application. You'll finish the book feeling like you have just gained valuable advice from a parent and educator who knows exactly how it feels to be the Dad, Mom, and or teacher in today's world."--Rick Harris, Director, Northern Nevada/Tahoe Leadership AcademyFormer Deputy Superintendent of Washoe County School District "Every page of this book expresses the author's optimism, belief in and appreciation for the good all children possess, and the importance of discipline as a teaching/learning process. I encourage parents, teachers, guidance counselors, school psychologists, family therapists and school counselors to invest the time to read this vital book. We can be hopeful that the kindness, wisdom, and sensibility of his words are embodied in schools and homes across the country."--Meggin McIntosh, PhDThe PhD of ProductivityEmphasis on Excellence, Inc.Reno, NV https://meggin.com
