  Traditional family structures are adapting to make room for children conceived in previously unimaginable ways. Whole industries and internet-enabled communities are being built around reproductive technologies. And there's more change coming as science continues to move forward. Combining intimate personal stories with cutting-edge research, Reconceptions invites listeners to reconsider their own ideas about parenthood and embrace a new vision of the meaning of family. 
   
   
   
  In 2012, Rachel Lehmann-Haupt, an award-winning journalist, chose to begin a family on her own as a single mother by choice. In the years since her son was born, Rachel's interest in collaborative reproduction has only grown—leading her to search for pioneers in reproductive science and the different permutations of families that this science is making possible. In Reconceptions, she shares intimate stories from the bleeding edge of society's redefinition of family—including her own experience of creating a new kind of tribe with her son's donor siblings, and their parents. 
   
   
   
  Reconceptions offers a compelling vision of what advances in reproductive science mean for the definition of family in the twenty-first century and beyond and imparts a modern story for anyone looking to better understand their own familial relationships—no matter what their family looks like.

  All children lie. But when your child lies to you, it can feel like a personal betrayal. 
   
      
   
  Lying is a healthy and inevitable part of child development. But when do lies become a problem? In this book, psychologist Victoria Talwar, director of the Talwar Child Development Lab at McGill University, presents practical, science-based strategies to address lying and foster truthfulness in children, from early childhood to the teenage years. 
   
    
    
  Kids need to learn what honesty looks like in different social situations, and also how to tell the truth in ways that do not hurt others' feelings—a complicated task! Parents and caregivers will learn how to use stories and examples to have proactive conversations with children about honesty, and how to model honest behavior for children. Talwar shows listeners how to respond effectively when a child lies (as they inevitably will). Backed by years of psychological research, this common-sense, practical guide reveals which parenting strategies promote truthfulness in children—and which ones don't.

  "...a wonderful, enlightening read that correlates tandem cycling to relationships and more. Not just a must-read for cyclists, everyone will benefit from this introspective view of our interaction with significant others, ourselves, and some of the best strategies to create a successful team of two."   Andy Applegate, Senior Cycling CoachA mutual friend encourages two middle-aged counselors/coaches to meet. With histories of multiple divorces and a death, neither expects the other to be the right one, isn’t sure the other is even a reasonable next one and has a list of reasons why they are probably the wrong one.To add complexity, they decide to ride a tandem bike with its involved mechanics and balance challenges. The tandem requires the same type of cooperation, negotiations and tolerance as the new relationship with one additional issue, the bike demands coordination and set procedures. The couple prizes independence and flexibility. If they can make the relationship work on the bike, they can probably make it work anywhere.The story covers many of the trials of merging the lives of two middle-aged adults with lots of profound differences and insecurities into a supportive couple, and the need to not just negotiate but welcome differences when established adult lives are merged.All their previous failed relationships laid a foundation for skepticism and doubts. Humor helps heal some of the abrasions as they bump into each other’s painful areas. Empathy for those who are a lot less than perfect is crucial glue. And a robust bridge is quickly built out of a surprising wave of passion that spans their differences until compatibility has a chance to emerge. One could read this for the sage advice on creating and healing a vibrant forgiving couple. Or  to get a primer on tandem riding and building a powerful, resilient team. Alternatively, there is a wealth of descriptions on how to develop middle-age fitness without obsession. It’s full of quirky humor.
