It is so hard to be a young person today. The world is full of many challenges, and the pressures young people face today are not like any others we have seen in the past. Families are so busy or broken, and communication is almost nonexistent. Phones, games, and social media are ways this generation communicates. As attentions are drawn to the new ways of communication, it appears the true message for living has become distorted. Inside, you will find biblical guidelines to either get or keep you on track through life's challenges. The examples may seem a bit silly, but they are intended to show that a positive can, in fact, replace a negative thought. My hope is this book may become a guide and a place to put thoughts as well as a reference to refer back to throughout your life. May you dare to be different

In 1937, at the age of nineteen, Ralph Hall, suicidal, revealed his sexual orientation to his grandmother, knowing she would comfort him. He was out for three years afterwards, until an indiscretion sent him back into the closet. At twenty-four, while in the army, he met and married Irene. The couple made their home on the San Francisco Peninsula and had four children. Ralph was an attentive husband and father - albeit with an intense interest in interior design, flower arranging, and fine objects - and a diligent worker who rose to payroll accountant at Standard Oil. It wasn't until 1975 that Ralph came out to his middle daughter, Laura, telling her that he had once considered his sexuality an aberration, an affliction. She was shocked, as the possibility her father might be gay had never crossed her mind. Irene had known Ralph's secret for eighteen years, but the two remained married until she died. It was only then that this charismatic man and devoted father, by now in his eighties, could freely express his authentic, gay self. Here, Laura paints a vivid and honest portrait of her beloved father and the effect his secret had on her own life.

Turning a lens on the dark legacy of colonialism in horror film, from Scream to Halloween and beyond Horror films, more than any other genre, offer a chilling glimpse--like peering through a creaky attic door--into the brutality of settler colonial violence. While Indigenous peoples continue to struggle against colonization, white settler narratives consistently position them as a threat, depicting the Indigenous Other as an ever-present menace, lurking on the fringes of "civilized" society. Indigenous inclusion or exclusion in horror films tells a larger story about myths, fears, and anxieties that have endured for centuries. Bloodied Bodies, Bloody Landscapes traces connections between Indigenous representations, gender, and sexuality within iconic horror classics like The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Friday the 13th. The savage killer, the romantic and doomed Indian, the feral "mad woman"--no trope or archetype escapes the shadowy influence of settler colonialism. In the end, horror both disrupts and uncovers colonial violence--only to bury its victims once more.

Are you at your wit's end with your toddler? Read on to discover how you can tame your little monster. In children between the ages of 1 and 5, temper tantrums are common, and up to 83% of 2-4 year olds have them regularly. No matter how well you know that this is an important part of their development, it can take its toll when you're facing yet another meltdown about the carrots being the wrong shape. Do any of the below sound familiar? ● Refusing to get dressed● Screaming blue murder because you asked them to put their shoes on● Throwing their breakfast on the floor because the spoon's the wrong color● Inconsolable tears because the cat went outside Every parent goes through this. Toddlers are at a stage where they are developing their independence and pushing boundaries, and they have more feelings than they can understand or express. How many times have you given in to them for the sake of a quiet life? Most parents have, and if you've done it, you know that it doesn't help you out in the long term. So how can you handle your toddler's tantrums in a way that minimizes damage, ends the drama as quickly as possible, and sets your child on the road to being a confident, happy child? The answer lies within positive discipline, a behavioral management technique that reduces the drama and allows you to set clear boundaries your toddler will understand. All too often, we resort to punishments, but time and time again, research has shown us that this is useless. Positive discipline is built around empathizing with your child, giving them space to feel their feelings, and helping them find solutions to their problems. By rejecting traditional discipline models of reward and punishment, you can create mutual respect between you and your child, improving their confidence and self-esteem for life. In Positive Toddler Discipline: Proven Strategies to Tame Tantrums and Nurture Their Developing Mind, you'll find everything you need to know about managing your toddler's tantrums. Here's just a taste of what you'll discover: ● Where the idea of positive discipline comes from--and why it works● The key reasons why your toddler is pushing your buttons● The secret weapon to taming your child for good● The #1 mistake every parent makes when talking to their toddler, and what you should be doing instead● Why the language you use matters, as well as which type of words your child will respond best to● How to set helpful consequences without resorting to punishment● Practical tips to use in the face of a major meltdown● A blueprint for navigating daily routines with a toddler And much more.

Laying your head in water is what you do when you're having a bad day. The water is where you go when you need time to think. It's where you go when you reach a crossroads in your life. Living in Copenhagen had been a dream for Laura Hall and it was working out - until it wasn't. She discovered that the trials of life will follow you anywhere, as she felt herself disintegrating into stress and burn out. She was unmoored and unsure of how to find her place in the world. What followed was a year swimming the cold seas of Scandinavia in search of answers and meaning. She swam in iceberg-filled seas in Greenland, visited Viking spas in Iceland, and beaches and piers all over Norway, Denmark and Sweden. During this year of discovery, Laura met other people doing the same thing and swapped notes, discovering ways to use the water to strengthen a bond with nature and get back to a more human way of life. A love letter to the sea and the people of Scandinavia, this book is also a clarion call for anybody stuck in a rut who needs to rekindle their lust for life. It's time to reconnect with the natural world. It's time to lay your head in the water.
