Parenting Help from Down in the Trenches--a truly powerful and extraordinary compilation of parenting gems derived from very ordinary and everyday people just like yourselves who are involved in the most critical task given to every generation: to produce offspring who acknowledge, love, and obey God; who honor and respect their parents; who learn personal responsibility and accountability through choices and consequences; and who develop a love for the country that is reflected in their adherence to its laws and regulations. As daunting a task as this is, it is one that the parents in this project accomplished as they parented their own children and are seeing it also in the lives of their grandchildren.I wanted to be the literal fly on the wall in their homes! Being their child's teacher, their young athlete's coach, or their son's or daughter's youth minister, I wanted to know what they did that must have been so earthshakingly different that produced such exemplary children. Herein lies the value of this work. It is not a plan, it is not a program, and neither is it a treatise taken from child psychology. It is simply a lot of loving Christian parents making application of God's principles along with a lot of logical common sense.What you read in this book works! The numbers do not lie! The statistical data tells the story of parenting success. It comes down to Philippians 1:9 "What you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, practice these things and the God of peace will be with you." You will learn and see in these ordinary families extraordinary principles! Practice these things, and the God of peace will be with you.

Grieving for a baby lost in your womb is inexplicable to anyone who has not been through it. You will feel lost and broken. Lonely and angry. Numb and confused. Desperate and heartbroken.Hearing stories from other women who had lost and how they felt is one of the things that helped me the most. It helped me feel less alone knowing that others had been there before me and had survived to find the light again. I felt like they could endure this, then maybe I could too. I've felt lost to grief. I've felt like giving up. I've spent hours desperately searching for an answer to stop the pain. I've raged with anger. I've ugly cried and screamed and felt unable to get out of bed. Maybe you've felt like this too? I hope that in these moments, this book can be a comfort to you. I hope my words (and those of the other women who share within this book) might hold your hand and your heart through your darkest places. This book is not about overcoming the grief of losing a baby. It's about finding a way to go on living a full life anyway. It's about finding a way to heal your heart so that you can create a life that makes you happy, not in spite of your losses but because of them.

If that's not a vital skill in parenting, then what is? With top tips for surviving sleep-deprivation (spoiler alert: embrace a cantankerous mood and don't buy crap coffee) to dealing with judgy idiots, getting to grips with shitty mum-guilt and returning to work, Zeena will show you that motherhood won't just get better, it'll be incredible. Laugh-out-loud funny, honest, tender and packed with real life advice - this is essential reading for every new mother not cherishing every moment, feeling like a misfit or simply finding this parenting lark all too much.

Are You Gregg's Mother? describes the challenges, obstacles, and grace of raising a son who develops paranoid schizophrenia."I am the mother of an adult son who suffers from paranoid schizophrenia. From Gregg's traumatic birth to his turbulent childhood, through his troubled teens up to the present, I have loved him, though at times that has been in the inscrutable dark. Each mother's story is different. My story, as Gregg's mother, is unique, but in some aspect, all mothers will find in our intertwined lives an aspect of their own. 'Not me,' one might say, 'that could never happen to me and my child'-and in that thought itself we are alike."
