PARENTING NEVER ENDS. From the founders of the #1 site for parents of teens and young adults comes an essential guide for building strong relationships with your teens and preparing them to successfully launch into adulthood The high school and college years: an extended roller coaster of academics, friends, first loves, first break-ups, driver’s ed, jobs, and everything in between. Kids are constantly changing and how we parent them must change, too. But how do we stay close as a family as our lives move apart? Enter the co-founders of Grown and Flown, Lisa Heffernan and Mary Dell Harrington. In the midst of guiding their own kids through this transition, they launched what has become the largest website and online community for parents of fifteen to twenty-five year olds. Now they’ve compiled new takeaways and fresh insights from all that they’ve learned into this handy, must-have guide. Grown and Flown is a one-stop resource for parenting teenagers, leading up to—and through—high school and those first years of independence. It covers everything from the monumental (how to let your kids go) to the mundane (how to shop for a dorm room). Organized by topic—such as academics, anxiety and mental health, college life—it features a combination of stories, advice from professionals, and practical sidebars. Consider this your parenting lifeline: an easy-to-use manual that offers support and perspective. Grown and Flown is required reading for anyone looking to raise an adult with whom you have an enduring, profound connection.

One of the most devastating losses a family can experience is the loss of a child. Whether the loss is through illness, accident, drugs, suicide, or other tragedy, the pain is overwhelming and often paralyzing. Often we think of "loss" as death. However, in our broken world there are many ways to suffer the loss of a child. This book discusses how a family can learn to cope with loss of a child due not only to death, but also to a custody battle, addiction (and other choices a child makes), chronic illness, crime (human trafficking, kidnap), and other issues where hopes and dreams disappear. Wright helps readers through the grieving process and assists them in finding God's grace and comfort during this very difficult time of life. This book is unique as it is for parents as well as grandparents.

MISSING LOVE CHILD HUSH MY MOUTH! Author- Eugene McDuffie Penny had experienced firsthand heartache and emotional pains at just a few years of age. Just imagine for a moment having turmoil or troubles in your life that you could never ever tell anyone about. Especially people that you think love or care about you. What would you do? Penny told me the day I met him that he stayed away from asking his Papa or Mama too many questions. "I was confused. Papa told me never to tell my Mama anything. My Mama told me never to tell Papa anything. I just hushed my mouth." "I made a dog out of clay at school and I couldn't wait to get home from to show it to my Mama and Papa. I still remember the night I dropped my dog of clay and my heart shattered into a billion pieces." If something we love is broken, can anyone put the pieces of a shattered life back together? Is it ever too late to start your life all over again? My hope is that as you read these pages, the message of Penny's story messages will help you to break free from the silence of your adult or childhood pain. That you will find the strength, courage, hope, and love you need to live. When I met Penny his first words to me were "Love was missing in my life" this is where the story of "Missing Love Child" begins. Eugene McDuffie 11/4/2013

My hope is that it will not only touch your heart, but bring you to a place where you or even the young child you're reading to feel comfortable to discuss your thoughts and express your emotions. Most importantly to realize that you were/are blessed with being able to spend a part of your life with this family member that has passed on or even making preparations to do just that.
