    Paperback. Zustand: Good. People hear get your affairs in order, and they think, It's too soon for the pearly gates They think gloomily of angels with harps. Of St. Peter handing out gilded You Are Here maps. They think, The Big Good-bye. But affairs simply means documents that show what stuff you own. (So affairs = documents.) And getting them in order just means planning who your stuff will go to since you can't take it with you. The really great news is, getting it done is way easier than you've been led to believe. At first, some people translate get your affairs in order into meaning they have to become financial planners-that they need to know how to purchase and sell stocks and bonds. Not at all It simply means making decisions about the stuff you already own. Why should you get your documents in order? I'll give you a hint. The reason isn't really about you. And it isn't about money. It's about protecting your family and belongings. It's about protecting your family relationships. Why should your spouse get their documents in order? So that you and your kids will be protected if your spouse becomes the dead guy first. Fact is, eighty percent of women die alone, as widows. That means 80 percent of men die married. That means, ladies, it's best to take care of this now, since you'll almost certainly have to at some point. Here's a quick story. In 2011, my husband, Tom, suddenly and unexpectedly died while our triplets were seniors in high school. Instantly I was thrust into getting all of our affairs in order. I'd had no idea how much work might be ahead of me if I lost my husband, or how much more terrible it would make the grieving process for our kids and me.…

Bring positive change to your life with #1 New York Times bestselling author Marianne Williamson - preorder her latest, The Mystic Jesus, picking up where A Return to Love left off In this honest and uplifting book, bestselling author Marianne Williamson delves deeply into the powerful role of change in our lives today. Far from something to fear and avoid, she says, every change--even the most difficult and painful--gives us an opportunity to receive the miraculous gift of personal transformation into what we are capable of becoming.

    Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER In the tradition of Paul Tough's How Children Succeed and Wendy Mogel's The Blessing of a Skinned Knee, this groundbreaking manifesto focuses on the critical school years when parents must learn to allow their children to experience the disappointment and frustration that occur from life's inevitable problems so that they can grow up to be successful, resilient, and self-reliant adults. Modern parenting is defined by an unprecedented level of overprotectiveness: parents who rush to school at the whim of a phone call to deliver forgotten assignments, who challenge teachers on report card disappointments, mastermind children's friendships, and interfere on the playing field. As teacher and writer Jessica Lahey explains, even though these parents see themselves as being highly responsive to their children's well being, they aren't giving them the chance to experience failure--or the opportunity to learn to solve their own problems. Overparenting has the potential to ruin a child's confidence and undermine their education, Lahey reminds us. Teachers don't just teach reading, writing, and arithmetic. They teach responsibility, organization, manners, restraint, and foresight--important life skills children carry with them long after they leave the classroom. Providing a path toward solutions, Lahey lays out a blueprint with targeted advice for handling homework, report cards, social dynamics, and sports. Most importantly, she sets forth a plan to help parents learn to step back and embrace their children's failures. Hard-hitting yet warm and wise, The Gift of Failure is essential reading for parents, educators, and psychologists nationwide who want to help children succeed.…

    Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER "Gripping.how can teachers snatch back their critical role and give children the necessary space to fail? They could start by making parents read Lahey." -- New York Times Book Review In the tradition of Paul Tough's How Children Succeed and Wendy Mogel's The Blessing of a Skinned Knee, this groundbreaking parenting manifesto focuses on the critical school years when parents must learn to allow their children to experience the disappointment and frustration that occur from life's inevitable problems so that they can grow up to be successful, resilient, and self-reliant adults. Modern parenting is defined by an unprecedented level of overprotectiveness: parents who rush to school at the whim of a phone call to deliver forgotten assignments, who challenge teachers on report card disappointments, mastermind children's friendships, and interfere on the playing field. As teacher and writer Jessica Lahey explains, even though these parents see themselves as being highly responsive to their children's well being, they aren't giving them the chance to experience failure--or the opportunity to learn to solve their own problems and develop critical life skills. This culture of overparenting has the potential to ruin a child's confidence and undermine their education, Lahey reminds us. Teachers don't just teach reading, writing, and arithmetic. They teach responsibility, organization, manners, restraint, and foresight--important lessons in child development that children carry with them long after they leave the classroom. Providing a path toward solutions, Lahey lays out a blueprint with targeted advice for handling homework, report cards, social dynamics, and sports. Most importantly, she sets forth a plan to help parents learn to step back and embrace their children's failures. Hard-hitting yet warm and wise, The Gift of Failure is essential reading for parents, educators, and psychologists nationwide who want to help children succeed. This essential guide provides a path toward solutions with targeted, evidence-based strategies for raising competent and self-reliant children. Fostering Resilience: Learn why allowing children to experience disappointment and frustration is crucial for developing the grit they need to become successful adults. Rethinking Overparenting: Discover how rushing to deliver forgotten assignments or challenging teachers can undermine your child's confidence and education. Actionable Parenting Advice: Get a practical blueprint with targeted tips for handling homework, report cards, social dynamics, and sports in a way that builds crucial life skills. Building Independence: Master the art of stepping back to embrace your children's failures, giving them the space to learn how to solve their own problems.…
