  It Was Never Your Job - A Guide...

  You were the one who kept the peace. The one who knew what mood your mother was in before she said a word. The one who learned, at an age when you should have been learning long division, how to hold an entire family together with nothing but your own two hands. 
  It Was Never Your Job is a guide for adults who grew up as the emotional backbone of their family. Drawing on family systems theory, polyvagal theory, Internal Family Systems, and attachment research, Daniel Mercer offers a compassionate, research-grounded roadmap for recognizing the invisible roles you were assigned, understanding the toll they took, and building a life that is finally, fully yours. 
  Through six composite character stories that will feel uncomfortably familiar, you will learn how families organize around pain, why your exhaustion runs deeper than your schedule, why setting a boundary feels like betrayal, and how to grieve the childhood you deserved while building the future you choose. 
  What you will explore: 
  The roles families assign without ever saying them out loud. 
  The hypervigilance that kept you safe as a child and is wearing you out as an adult. 
  Why relationships built on rescue keep collapsing. 
  The exhaustion beneath the exhaustion. 
  Identity, after a lifetime of being whoever the family needed you to be. 
  Grieving the parenting you never got. 
  Boundaries as care, not betrayal. 
  Learning to receive. 
  Reciprocal relationships, the kind you may have never seen modeled. 
  Parenting differently, if you choose to parent. 
  Living with the guilt that visits anyway. 
  Building a life that is yours. 
  This is not a book about blame. This is a book about freedom. For adult children of emotionally immature parents, parentified children, eldest daughters, family caretakers, scapegoats, and anyone who is ready to put down a job they were never meant to carry.

  Daily, we all experience emotions, both happy and negative. Most of us learn how to control, express, and cope with our emotions healthy as youngsters. Emotion regulation is more challenging for some people, sometimes due to terrible childhood events like abuse or trauma, sometimes due to a biological vulnerability to emotional sensitivity, and sometimes due to not being shown or taught how to manage challenging emotions.We can learn to modify what feeling we experience, how intense it is when we have it, and how we react to it since emotions are not absolute and everlasting. Emotion regulation promotes psychological well-being and aids in the management of bad life events and stress.There are various advantages to having better emotion regulation strategies to handle your emotions. Individuals who exercise emotional regulation are more robust and manage better with life's stresses. They have more effective coping mechanisms and are more tolerant of stress. Emotion regulation is a protective factor against anxiety and depressive symptoms. Furthermore, children who can control their emotions have greater flexibility in their thinking and higher focus, impulse control, and problem-solving abilities. These advantages cascade, resulting in more self-assurance, emotional well-being, and general satisfaction.

  Wasted Education - How We Fail...

  An urgent reality check for America’s blinkered fixation on STEM education. 
  We live in an era of STEM obsession. Not only do tech companies dominate American enterprise and economic growth while complaining of STEM shortages, but we also need scientific solutions to impending crises. As a society, we have poured enormous resources—including billions of dollars—into cultivating young minds for well-paid STEM careers. Yet despite it all, we are facing a worker exodus, with as many as 70% of STEM graduates opting out of STEM work. Sociologist John D. Skrentny investigates why, and the answer, he shows, is simple: the failure of STEM jobs. 
  Wasted Education reveals how STEM work drives away bright graduates as a result of “burn and churn” management practices, lack of job security, constant training for a neverending stream of new—and often socially harmful—technologies, and the exclusion of women, people of color, and older workers. Wasted Education shows that if we have any hope of improving the return on our STEM education investments, we have to change the way we’re treating the workers on whom our future depends.
