The tending instinct : how nurturing is essential for who we are and how we live / by Taylor, Shelley E.;

Includes bibliographical references (p. 238-280) and index.Taylor examines stress, relationships, and human society through the special lens of women's biology. She draws on genetics, evolutionary psychology, physiology, and neuroscience to show how this tending process begins virtually at the moment of conception and literally crafts the biology of offspring through genes that rely on caregiving for their expression. Taylor also examines what drives women to seek each other's company, and to tend to the young and the infirm -- acts that greatly benefit the group but often at great cost to the individual.

Parenting mindfully : 101 ways to help raise responsible and caring kids in an unpredictable world / by DePino, Catherine,author.;

Introduction : How can mindfulness help you raise smart, caring, responsible kids? ; What are the basic principles of mindfulness? ; How to use this book -- Bolster confidence -- Encourage responsible behavior -- Boost emotional intelligence -- Motivate excellence -- Teach coping skills -- Instill compassion -- Nurture kindness -- Impart courtesy -- Foster respect -- Curb greediness -- Curtail conflicts -- Deliver meaningful consequences."More than ever, life in our world, nation, and communities appears insecure and unpredictable. Every day, new and disturbing incidents appear on the news that feed this sense of unrest. In our communities, people don't attempt to understand one another's points of view, causing compromise to give way to discord and conflict. This unremitting stress filters down to the way we raise our children and the way our kids respond to accepting the values we work hard to impart. Parenting Mindfully helps you provide your children with a buffer against the challenges they face at home, in school, and in the neighborhood. Following the principles of Mindfulness can help you raise kids who become school smart, street smart, caring human beings. If you want to promote character traits like compassion, kindness, and respect for you and others, using Mindfulness techniques will jumpstart these positive qualities in your children. Imagine what it would be like if you could begin to find a way to parent your kids successfully despite the growing negativity in the world. Parenting Mindfully can help both you and your kids discover a new and rewarding way of living."--Includes bibliographical references.

In this follow-up volume, Beattie clears up misconceptions about codependency and reminds us that much of it is normal behavior. It's about crossing lines. There are times we do too much, care too much, feel too little, or overly engage. Codependency, she shows, is not an illness but rather a series of behaviors that once broken down and analyzed can be successfully combated. Along the way, Beattie effectively invokes her own inspiring story and those of others to empower us to step out of the victim role forever, demonstrating that while it may not seem possible now, we have the power to take care of ourselves, no matter what we are experiencing. Punctuated with Beattie's renowned candor and intuitive wisdom, The New Codependency is an owner's manual to learning to be who we are and gives us the tools necessary to reclaim our lives by renouncing unhealthy practices. In The New Codependency, Melody Beattie explains how codependent behavior has changed; identifying a new generation whose codependency manifests itself through continued taking and entitlement rather than the inability to stop giving. Offers specifically tailored activities and tests pertaining to particular behaviors, enabling us to assess our level of codependent behavior and personalize our own step-by-step guide to wellness. Provides guidance on how we can move out of the Codependent Zone, helping us to cross back over the line and reclaim our lives.

Same difference : how gender myths are hurting our relationships, our children, and our jobs / by Barnett, Rosalind C.; Rivers, Caryl.;

Includes bibliographical references (p. 255-278) and index.The seduction of difference -- The caring trap -- That old black magic -- The mating game -- Talking about power -- Man (and woman) the hunter -- Do the math -- Leading questions -- As the twig is bent -- The self-esteem swan dive -- The road ahead.Publisher's description: From respected academics like Carol Gilligan to pop-psych gurus like John Gray, the message has long been the same: Men and women are fundamentally different, and trying to bridge the gender gap can only lead to grief. Generations have bought into the idea that women are uniquely primed to be "relational," men innately driven toward achievement-even when these "truths" are contradicted by what's happening in our daily lives. The time has come, argue the authors of this groundbreaking book, to liberate ourselves from biological determinism. Drawing on years of exhaustive research, Barnett and Rivers reveal how a toxic mix of junk science, pop psychology, and media hype has profoundly influenced our thinking and behavior, causing us to make poor decisions about how we choose our mates, raise our children, and manage our careers. It is power, not gender, that makes a difference; in fact, there are more differences among women (or men) with varying degrees of power than there are between women and men. In this vitally important and life-changing book, Barnett and Rivers sound a clarion call: a plea to end sexual stereotyping so that women and men, girls and boys, may realize their destinies as full human beings. Same Difference takes on the myths of "Mars and Venus": Myth...Men are genetically driven to seek out beautiful women. This may have been true in the stone age, but times change. Now, a significant number of men report that an attractive portfolio is even more alluring than a pretty face. Myth...Women want to marry wealthy men who can protect them and their children. In fact, a surprising majority of today's women put a higher price tag on empathy and nurturance. Myth...Girls face an inevitable plunge in self-esteem at adolescence. Recent research finds no evidence of this. Yet parents, teachers, and girls themselves lower their expectations and balk at challenges, because of this pervasive belief. Myth...Boys and girls learn differently. Teaching styles that emphasize different tactics for boys and girls are more often rooted in stereotypes than research or hard science, and can lead to a poorer-quality education for girls. Still, public funds are squandered on special curricula aimed at "female learning styles." Myth...Men and women speak "different languages"-they "Just Don't Understand" each other. Wrong. Women talk "male" in the boardroom, and men easily master "motherese." Myth...Female leadership is kinder and gentler. Not so. Position is the key to behavior: female managers are not more democratic than males, though many of us might like to think so.
