This groundbreaking, self-help book reinforces the importance of healing the damage to be the best parent you can be.\u003cbr\u003e While the subject is heavy, there are many light and humorous moments throughout the book. Especially in the parenting scenarios. This is a parenting book, with helpful tips whether you came from abuse or not.\u003cbr\u003e Parenting well is a daunting endeavor for anyone. You're faced with more challenges when you had a crappy childhood. Of course, you don't want to do what was done to you but it's easier said than done.\u003cbr\u003e While there's no quick fix, this book gives encouragement to seek help and a roadmap of steps to take. Geanne Meta's story sets an example of transcending the harm done in childhood to reach a life full of hope and healing.\u003cbr\u003e Part 1 - Healing Yourself, is about the journey to become whole; while Part 2 - Raising Good Kids, is based on the author's quest to find helpful parenting resources.\u003cbr\u003e The author lived with the pain of childhood sexual abuse but didn't seek help until she became a parent. She courageously describes her struggles along the emotional journey of healing from sexual and emotional abuse. She went from small victim to resilient survivor by working on the root causes of her shame, denial, pain and anger.\u003cbr\u003e As a survivor you'll relate to many of the same thoughts and negative feelings that the author had about herself. Her story takes you through the steps of breaking the cycle, recognizing denial, finding self=love and maybe even forgiveness.\u003cbr\u003e New parents, or those at any stage who are looking for answers, can find ways to make life better for themselves and their children.\u003cbr\u003e Unfortunately, almost everyone knows someone who had some form of child abuse and can recommend this guide to them.\u003cbr\u003e Included tools: \u003cbr\u003e Worksheet to Help You Connect With Your Inner Child\u003cbr\u003e Questionnaire: What You Want to do Differently Than Your Parents\u003cbr\u003e Group Discussion - Individual Work Guide\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 178\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.41 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 01, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51792885317920,"sku":"9781733251310","price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/29ab7daec87a7028ea8249488207153b.webp?v=1780709986","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/parenting-well-after-childhood-abuse-be-a-great-parent-even-if-yours-were-crap-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
