DESPRE AUDIOBOOK. Poate sunteți părinți, poate sunteți educatori, poate sunteți bunici sau poate doar aveți în îngrijire un copil de o vârstă fragedă cu care nu știți cum să vă purtați.

The role of our parents in our lives is powerful, but even more powerful is the version we hold of them in our hearts. Our interpretations of our experiences with them truly affect our lives.

How can we heal feelings of abandonment, resentment, attachment, and guilt? Did you know that your relationship with your parents influences your relationships with others?...

After the Civil War, African Americans placed poignant “information wanted” advertisements in newspapers, searching for missing family members. Inspired by the power of these ads, Heather Andrea Williams uses slave narratives, letters, interviews, public records, and diaries to guide listeners back to devastating moments of family separation during slavery when people were sold away from parents, siblings, spouses, and children. Williams explores the usually unsuccessful journeys toward reunification.

The child needs your love, not your help. The child needs nourishment, support, but not your help. Every way to help a child is wrong. The very idea of helping is not right. The natural potential of the child is unknown, so there is no way to help him rightly to attain to his natural potential. You cannot help when the goal is unknown; all that you can do is not interfere. And in fact, in the name of help everybody is interfering with everybody else; and because the name is beautiful, nobody objects.
