parent-child relationships

• New Books Explore Parent-Child Relationships

Relationships between parents and children are seldom explored in children's books. But they are at the center of two new books that are very good. cents "Fancy Nancy: Ooh La La! It's Beauty Day" (HarperCollins 2010) is nice in that it focuses on the relationship between a mother and daughter.

• Third Age ; Parent-Child Relationships Change As Offspring Become Young Adults

Those of us who have children all know that once you have had kids you never really stop being a parent, no matter how old both of you get. It's also true - at least I think it is - that very seldom in the parent-child relationship have so many mistakes been made, and hurt felt on both sides, that the relationship is broken forever. Almost all of us get second, third or fourth chances to mend whatever may have gone wrong. In many ways, parenting has taken on a new face during the past few generations because mother and dad are much closer to their kids than were many of our parents and grandparents. Often in past generations, the word was that parents were there to give directives and oversee behavior, whereas now, the older generation can be a model of emotional support, friendship and...

• Parent Education Program for Incarcerated Mothers in Colorado

One of the primary goals of correctional education is to reduce recidivism by reintegrating inmates into society and family in a productive and positive manner and, in the case of parent education, become good and effective parents to their children. Research suggests that prison parent education programs provide inmates with measurable knowledge and affirmative parenting skills which can result in positive behavior changes, including a decrease in the recidivism rate. This current study examined the short term impact of the Partners in Parenting (PIP) curriculum, a skilled-based program focusing on strengthening family relationships and promoting positive behaviors. Participants were comprised of 219 mothers who agreed to take part in parent education classes while incarcerated in seve...

One of the highlights of the 2002 Philly Fringe Festival was the workshop performance of Rainpan 43's Machines, Machines, Machines, Machines, Machines, Machines, Machines. Reimagined by creators/performers Gabriel Quinn Bauriedel, Geoff Sobelle of Pig Iron fame and Rainpan co-founder Trey Lyford, the new production focuses on three paranoid brothers who bury themselves in a tiny bunker with a bunch of ingenious but inelegantly crafted machines. A madcap piece of physical theater, Machines is helmed by pioneering director Aleksandra Wolksa, who was responsible for Rainpan's signature production All Wear Bowlers.

• Bridging the Gap: Foster Children and the Faith-Based Community

Two popular biblical sayings, "Train up a child in the way be should go and when he is older, he shall not depart from those ways" and "Honor thy mother and father" found in Proverbs 22:6 and Exodps 20:12 respectively, focus on the importance of child rearing and parent-child relationships. The faith-based community has always encouraged parents to instill morals and values in their children so that they will hold to those teachings, as they become adults. In addition, children are warned to show their parents honor and respect. These scriptures have long served as important principles for parents and children in the church. Once you are aware, you can then act. One way is to get involved with the National Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) Association. There are currently more tha...
