With this comprehensive resource, you will learn all about borderline personality disorder, how it shows up in children, adolescents, and your adult children, how to obtain proper treatment, and how to manage your child's condition at home. You'll find proven-effective strategies to help you communicate and improve your relationship with your child of any age, and, as a result, improve your own life as a parent and an individual. You'll also find real stories and advice from parents who have also experienced raising a child with BPD. Most importantly, you'll learn how to maintain boundaries and validate your child while also meeting your own needs. Whether your child is five or twenty-five, this book offers tools to help you and your family thrive.Ver libro

EXTENDED SUMMARY THE SHOCK DOCTRINE BASED ON THE BOOK BY NAOMI KLEIN SUMMARY WRITTEN BY: QUICK READING LIBRARY CONTENT The Torture Lab The Other Doctor Shock States of Shock Cleaning the Slate “Entirely Unrelated” Saved by a War The New Doctor Shock Crisis Works Slamming the Door on History General Analysis of the Book ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK “The Shock Doctrine” by Naomi Klein explores how economic elites exploit crises, both natural and man-made, to push through radical neoliberal policies. Klein examines the ways in which countries devastated by wars, disasters, or political upheaval are subjected to "shock therapy" — a tactic rooted in psychological and economic manipulation. Through historical and contemporary case studies, the book links torture, military coups, and privatization efforts to global economic restructuring. Klein argues that the shock doctrine is a deliberate strategy to dismantle democratic structures and establish corporate-controlled systems, ultimately harming vulnerable populations.Ver libro

This book is for anyone who wants to better understand autism, from parents and teachers to employers, friends, and individuals on the spectrum themselves. Each chapter provides insights into specific aspects of autism, such as communication, sensory processing, and emotional regulation, offering practical tips for creating supportive environments in homes, schools, workplaces, and communities. Additionally, we’ll explore ways to build strong support systems, nurture social connections, and empower neurodivergent individuals to advocate for themselves and their needs. As we delve into autism, we also examine the importance of neurodiversity—the idea that neurological differences, like autism, are natural variations of the human experience rather than deficits. Embracing neurodiversity means fostering a culture of acceptance, where we value and accommodate these differences rather than expecting everyone to fit the same mold. Through greater understanding, empathy, and awareness, we can foster a society that not only accepts autism but celebrates the diverse perspectives and skills it brings. This journey requires an open mind, a compassionate heart, and a commitment to making our world more inclusive. As you read, I hope this book inspires you to appreciate the richness of the autism spectrum and to play a part in creating a future where neurodiversity is recognized and embraced.Ver libro
