BOOK DESCRIPTION: Countless books have been written about parenting. Their number indicates how much parents want to learn, to grow and to succeed. Raising Peaceable Powerful Children is equally concerned with helping its readers really see, appreciate and understand children. It is supportive of parents and teachers as it suggests how to avoid conflict, tension, and unclear communication, and helps them devise their own effective techniques. It provides strategies for the myriad difficulties that overwhelm parents--particuarly working and /or single parents--as they do their best to be successful, confident guardians and raisers of the next generation. The book is a concise, friendly companion to caregivers, with countless memorable examples of situations young people face. Most of the vignettes have happened in the author's life, and their dramatic impact is clear. Our work in raising peaceable, powerful adults is hard, but we can accomplish it with Barbara Hill Steinau's help. Some parents are raising such children, and they--and their chaildren--are impressive. Imagine what strong, glad-to-be-with adults such as young people will become! AUTHOR BIO: Barbara Steinau's parents, a teacher and social worker, demonstarted to her by their lives to think independently and to act on her beliefs whether popular not. She has worked for peace and for racial and economic justice for many years. Her teaching enables children to become effective and self-esteeming adults.
