ohpikinawasowin/Growing a Child

Western theory and practice are over-represented in child welfare services for Indigenous peoples, not the other way around. Contributors to this collection invert the long-held, colonial relationship between Indigenous peoples and systems of child welfare in Canada. By understanding the problem as the prevalence of the Western universe in child welfare services rather than Indigenous peoples, efforts to understand and support Indigenous children and families are fundamentally transformed. Child welfare for Indigenous peoples must be informed and guided by Indigenous practices and understandings. Privileging the iyiniw (First people, people of the land) universe leads to reinvigorating traditional knowledges, practices and ceremonies related to children and families that have existed for centuries. The chapters of ohpikinawasowin/Growing a Child describe wisdom-seeking journeys and service-provision changes that occurred in Treaty 6, Treaty 7, and Treaty 8 territory on Turtle Island. Many of the teachings are nehiyaw (Cree) and some are from the Blackfoot people. Taken together, this collection forms a whole related to the Turtle Lodge Teachings, which expresses nehiyaw stages of development, and works to undo the colonial trappings of Canada's current child welfare system.

Growing Leaders - James Lawrence

Seven out of ten Christian leaders feel overworked, four in ten suffer financial pressures, only two in ten have had management training and 1,500 give up their job over a ten-year period.

Parenting a child who has emotional dysregulation can be a bumpy ride. You’ve probably received advice—some of it unsolicited—from friends, teachers, and family members.

This book will give you the tools to understand your child from day 1- to crack the ''code'' on what makes your child tick-and to tailor your parenting approach accordingly. By understanding the degree to which your child''s behaviour is written into their genetic code, and the environment in which it''s expressed, you will learn what will and what won''t work in helping your child become their best selves, with a lot less stress all around: you can''t change your child but you can be a better parent.

What to Do About Your Troubled Child - Laura J. Stevens, Richard W. Walker

As children grow, there may be times when their behaviour seems out of place or troubling. When there is a recurrent pattern of one or more of these types of behaviour, something may be wrong.

WHAT TO DO ABOUT YOUR TROUBLED CHILD is designed to provide you with the information you need to get to the bottom of the mystery.

Each chapter focuses on one disorder and includes a list of questions intended to determine if your child exhibits enough of the tendencies associated with this disorder to warrant a closer look.
