A solid sense of self-worth helps children make good choices, develop healthy relationships, and work to achieve their dreams. Based on a biblical understanding of human value, Building Confidence in Your Child teaches moms and dads how to parent positively to help their children grow into secure adults who are poised for success in life. Deftly balancing the principles of humility and pride, trusted author and parenting expert Dr. James Dobson offers practical pointers that break through the theories and get right down to the decisions parents have to make every day.

But the good news is there is a way you can be victorious in this battle for the hearts, minds, and souls of your precious children.

The second installment in the riveting new trilogy from Dr. James Dobson and Kurt Bruner transports readers to a not-too-distant future when the young and healthy strain under the burden of a rapidly aging population. Everyone is nervous about how Judge Victor Santiago will rule. The case involved the tragic demise of a loving mother and her disabled son. A common medical procedure has somehow created havoc across the legal and economic landscape. The president''s popular Youth Initiative is losing momentum. Political and economic fortunes are at stake. That''s why someone, somewhere, would rather put the judge in his grave than risk a wrong decision. Tyler Cain, a once respected police detective turned sleazy private investigator, has been pulled into the middle of events way above his pay grade. He hopes the case will restore some measure of dignity. But does he have what it takes to find the potential assassin before time runs out? He seeks help from Julia Davidson, a newly married journalist, who finds herself torn between the influence she craves and the husband she loves. She wants significance. But he wants a child. In Fatherless, Dr. James Dobson and Kurt Bruner depicted a time in which present-day trends come to sinister fruition. This eagerly awaited follow-up vividly imagines what happens when the abiding joys of parenthood are exchanged for the gradual deterioration of a CHILDLESS world.

El doctor James Dobson ofrece respuestas tiles a sus preguntas acerca de las funciones de los padres y la crianza de los nios: Cunto trabajo se debe exigir de un nio? Cmo se establece el concepto de Dios en la mente de un nio? Qu pasa por la mente de un nio cuando abiertamente desafa a sus padres? De qu debo hablar cuando trato de asuntos sexuales con mi preadolescente? // Dr. James Dobson provides useful answers to your questions about the roles of parents and parenting: How much work should be required of a child? How is the concept of God in the mind of a child? What goes through the mind of a child when her parents openly challenges? What should I talk when I try with my preteen sexual matters?

The year is 2042, and the long-predicted tipping point has arrived. For the first time in human history, the economic pyramid has flipped: The feeble old now outnumber the vigorous young, and this untenable situation is intensifying a battle between competing cultural agendas. Reporter Julia Davidson-a formerly award-winning journalist seeking to revive a flagging career-is investigating the growing crisis, unaware that her activity makes her a pawn in an ominous conspiracy. Plagued by nightmares about her absent father, Julia finds herself drawn to the quiet strength of a man she meets at a friend's church. As the engrossing plot of FATHERLESS unfolds, Julia faces choices that pit professional success against personal survival in an increasingly uncertain and dangerous world. FATHERLESS vividly imagines a future in which present-day trends come to sinister fruition.

The nightmares have returned. Something, or someone, wants to drag Julia Davidson back into a dreadful conflict she assumed was a distant memory. Was this, like before, the echo of another person''s dream? Is she responsible to rescue faces she doesn''t recognize but can''t forget? Do the murky images suggest she has a part to play in whatever ominous events lie ahead? Things are finally looking up for Matthew Adams. As the top earner at MedCom Associates he has started to crawl out of the financial hole created during his "dark days." And now, out of the blue, a mysterious woman invites him to join a confidential research initiative. She says it will ease the mounting economic crisis. But at what cost to Matthew''s fragile sanity, and his tortured soul? Pastor Alex Ware faces a serious problem. The honeymoon period at Christ Community Church has ended. The finance committee says they can''t afford another year of dwindling income and dismal growth. The board wants action, now! Aging parishioners would gladly allocate a portion of their estate to help. But only if Alex stops condemning the transition industry and starts affirming what the Youth Initiative calls "our heroic volunteers." In Fatherless and Childless, Dr. James Dobson and Kurt Bruner depicted a time in which present-day trends come to sinister fruition. This eagerly awaited conclusion vividly imagines what happens when God''s image on earth is exchanged for the horrors of a GODLESS world.

This thesis explores the Baltimore Riot of April 19, 1861 during the American Civil War (1861-1865). Here the first deaths of the war occurred when Massachusetts soldiers attempted to journey through Baltimore onto the nation''s capital Washington, D.C. An armed clash between local citizens and Northern troops ensued. Four soldiers were killed while another twelve Baltimoreanssuffered the same fate. Despite being the place of the first deaths, the Baltimore Riot has been an under represented event in Civil War history and memory. It is this thesis'' aim to go beyondaccepting that the Riot was result of a secessionist mob and longstanding tensions within the city. The thesis is divided into three main chapters. The first chapter will investigate howhistorians have reported and handled this event as a part of the war''s history and the ways the Riot has been passed down through memory. In this section I will show how the Baltimore Riot has been a difficult event for Civil War historians and commemorators to reconcile with the established understandings of this conflict. I will show how the Riot and the crowd has been classified into the arguments of self defence, traitors, and a composite stance where the crowd was solely a secessionists uprising while the majority of Baltimoreans remained loyal citizens to the Union cause. Chapter Two will analyse and compare the 1861 Riot to Baltimore''s long history of public violence in particular the riots of the 1850s. Here I look at three events during the earlier decade - the 1856 Municipal Election Riots, the 1857 Seal Strike, and the 1858 and 1859 Caulker Riots. Through these events I will show that the Baltimore Riot of 1861 was far larger and incorporated all of the past methods and strategies into this one event. As such the 1861 Riot''s scale and ferocity make this event more than a typical Baltimore style riot and says more about the longstanding practices of violence in the city. Chapter Three will explore the reasons and rationales of why Baltimoreans attacked the Massachusetts soldiers on April 19, 1861. These motivations are rumours and anxiety, and identity and self defence. To achieve this objective I will use testimonies of the people who witnessed, participated and lived through the Riot. These testimonies will come from Grand Juries, Maryland State Legislature sessions, diaries, letters and reminiscences and memoirs. The main purpose is to go inside the crowd and understand why the Riot resulted and to show that the crowd was not only secessionists but comprised from across a far broader social spectrum of Baltimoreans. Overall, I want to show that the Baltimore Riot as the place of the Civil War''s first deaths deserves greater recognition and appreciation, and that its size and intensity stands apart from the city''s lineage of rioting and violence. For me the Baltimore Riot is more than a riot perpetrated by a secessionist mob as it has more in common with being a battle. With this in mind the Riot needs to be considered as a more significant event at the start of the American Civil War.
