Crime Scene in Stuarts Draft, VA: The Backyard & the CRIME Law Enforcement Refused to Investigate

Like the garage of the Stuarts Draft (Shenandoah Valley), VA house I rented for several months this year, every time I, my son or my young former landlord went into the backyard, the single stalkers turned false flag domestic terrorist organized crime stalker network became frantic. Why? I believe this backyard is part of the crime scene the entire house has been used as. Here, I suspect was the place where shallow graves were dug and used to bury the remains of more than one person, including the remains shown in the videos called "Death Scene in Stuarts Draft, VA Garage". I've even seen what I suspected were bones in the soil of the yard and red clay mud was used to cover the blood spatter, the human remains that stained the concrete in the garage and other evidence of the probable homicide that was committed in that house. (I suspect there was more than one such crime committed there.) (c) 2010. Dahna M. Chandler and Fourth Estate Publishing, LLC. All Rights Reserved.

Writing Contests for Teens - Something to Do With a Boring Summer!

Somewhere between standardized testing, number 2 pencils, and bubble in the circle...children lose their love for learning. With the loss of funding in most schools, and in some places so much so that there is not enough money to supply even text books, the fine arts programs take a back seat to math, science and language.

Learning stopped being fun for kids somewhere around the time that the music programs were slashed, fine arts and art classes were removed or made extracurricular, and school libraries have to make do with what they can get through grants and donations.

All children need a way to escape, to be transported to magical times and places, faraway lands they may never visit in real life, or take a trip through history. Video games have become the way of the future, but there's not a lot to be learned from a video game. So how can children learn while also enjoying the experience? By reading!

The problem is, reading isn't as exciting to children as it once was. Computers, video games, internet, and other such modern marvels have taken the place of a good book in many youngster's lives. There is nothing wrong with these kids loving the internet, and there is much that can be gained by using the internet. In fact, a lot of these children use blogs as a creative expression and outlet, so they are writing. So why not take that writing these kids are doing and put it to some creative use?

There is a way. Several small publishers have opened up writing and illustration contests to young readers. These contests allow children to use their creative talents while also having a chance to be published in books or periodicals sold all over the country and even receive royalty contracts or scholarships.

One such publisher, who has created contests for kids this summer, and they also plan to keep contests running for children all year round, is Koboca Publishing. I recently spoke with Bo Savino, the author of Reggie & Ryssa, and the Summer Camp of Faery, one of the books used for facilitating this contest through Koboca Publishing, and here is what she had to say about the children's contests:

"I am very excited about the contests... [They are] going to be a great thing to energize kids...I love that most of all."

While most traditional writing and illustration contests have entry fees, Koboca Publishing's contests for kids don't have any entry fees at all. When I asked why Koboca Publishing decided not to charge an entry fee, here is what they had to say:

"No entry fees.... and [we] could probably make some money from entry fees...but [we] want it available for all kids...and some won't be able to do it with entry fees."

There are other small publishers and magazine publications / periodicals that offer writing and illustration contests for children too. Some of these charge small entry fees, some charge no entry fees, but they all offer a child a way to see their name and their art or work in print, while at the same time bringing back a love for literature and the arts. To find these contests, simply use your favorite search engine and search for children's literature or writing contests. Be sure to always check the authenticity of the contests before entering or allowing your child to enter into the contest.

These contests can help foster a love for the fine arts again, by getting kids involved in the literary and illustrative process, making them a part of something bigger, along with some noteriaty that all kids crave. Why not pick up a few copies of some interesting books for your kids today and get them started on a journey into the unknown that reading can bring? After a few books, help your kids get involved in writing or illustrating for publishing companies that hold these contests for the types of books they enjoy. Not only will this help bring a love of the written word back to your child, but it just might keep them busy during those long summer months and you will no longer hear, "Mom, I'm sooo bored. There's nothing to do!"

Good luck to all who choose to enter contests this year!

The China Earthquake - Child Adoption

Abstract:

This is the second paper is in response to the work being carried out in China by counsellors in the field. China on May 12th suffered its worse earthquake for 30 years measuring 8 on the Richter scale, causing at this time over 70,000 deaths and millions of people homeless and injured. In the aftermath of the earthquake people from all over China were concerned with the plight of the children left victims of tragic parental loss and death. Good hearted people rushed forward to offer adoption of these children to give them a new home and a new beginning. This paper is to explore the psychology of what to expect from a child who will have severe mental anguish for many months if not years and to make potential adopters aware of the pitfalls of rushing to quickly to adopt what may turn out to be a problem child with severe mental problems in the future.

Introduction:

Research into child adoption is well established particularly in the United States and Europe following disasters in other areas and the long-term study of the effects of psychological harm seen to manifest in children over the short and long term. As far back as 1937 David Levy in the USA began the first study into how children are affected by adoption into a stranger's family, in a new environment and the absence of the biological mother. Levy saw the distress in these children from an early age and the cumulative effect over the years to mental problems in adulthood. Since this pioneering research many other psychologists have followed suit and confirmed the harm of adoption when the compulsion to help over-rides the needs of the child.

The Effect of Adoption:

Jean MacLeod wrote in Adoptive Families Magazine, "The day to day life with a new child, who is scared and perhaps angry or rejecting, with little sleep can make even the most confident parent lose their composure" This then is the fundamental problem of removing the child from its environment, natural parents and friends to a strangers home (however welcoming) to begin a new life where all they knew and understood has been torn away from them in a moment of horror.

The children of the earthquake will suffer emotional problems brought on my sudden loss of their parents soon after birth, as small children and as middling to teenage years. Each child according to age and experience will deal with the loss in differing ways but often with similar reactions. The youngest will have not have had the chance for a bonding relationship with the biological mother, this often lies at the deep route of a child's later personality as physical and psychological aspects are merged in the child (Clothier 1943). Child development research by such eminent psychologists such as Bowlby (1960's) clearly show the affect of sudden loss, separation anxiety and developmental damage to a child's psyche in the future and how they can easily become dysfunctional adults later in life. Even with the best-substitute mother in the world the subtle effects of interactionism at an early stage of development cannot be made-up for in kindness and patience by an adoptive parent. Older children from two years to ten know they have a personal loss; they cannot however evaluate the process of grief with the reality of the situation. Disbelief as in any grief process is the first reaction and they angrily reject any attempt to re-parent them to another family. In China because of the one-baby-policy this has an even worse affect as no older sibling as available for secondary bonding and sharing of the grief process for them. For the teenagers it can be even worse - they have the cognitive ability to understand the loss, but they are too young to fend for themselves and are treated as younger than they really are by well-meaning helpers. They often feel their needs are ignored and the feeling for self-determination is not taken into account as the authorities determine their fate for the next five to ten years.

What can new Foster Parents Expect?

The emotional problems will manifest in many ways but some are more common to most age groups, such as, fear of close relationships, low self esteem, and anger, immaturity that produces problems such as, lying, oppositional behaviour, school underachievement, quick temper, frustration and depression. (Katz M.)

Fear of Close Relationships:

You are young, your parents have died in an earthquake, and it was sudden, horrific and unexpected. You are now alone, strangers are feeding you, sheltering you, you can here counsellors talking but do not understand the words. Your personal belongings, the things you cherished are gone. Soon you are told a nice couple are going to look after you? You are confused, who are these strangers what do they want me for? The first thing most children learn is to trust or mistrust adults, in this the child's reactions to situations can often be the foundation of decisions. In the child's mind their parents have been taken away, lost forever, no chance for goodbye or a last kiss, hug or smile. This can happen again the child surmises and in this moment decides that getting close to someone hurts terribly, so the only solution is to keep your distance both physically and mentally. The new parents cannot understand why the child hates them, rejects their kindness, and does not communicate with them, soon the new parents feel guilty, they want to give the child back; they feel it is ungrateful for this new chance, this new beginning. The new parents start to reject the child and so the child sees this rejection as confirming its new belief that to be close is dangerous. In the child's mind safety lies in self-reliance without the need for adult care.

Low Self-Esteem:

All ages of children will feel the sudden loss as somehow a punishment to them for something they did not do or think about prior to the earthquake. To an adult this is irrational thinking but to a child it makes sense. They (the child) must have done something wrong to be punished in such a terrible way. Feelings of worthlessness abound as the child develops. New parents talk of future expectations, how they are going to help the child become something, but to the child this pressure to please the new parents is hard work when they have not even had time to grieve for their own loss. This thinking leads to the "Chosen Child" complex where the child feels they are special to the new parents and so must make every effort to show their gratitude for being adopted. However for the child trying to live up to these expectations can lead to feelings of failure, lack of self-worth and depression. They cannot become the "Perfect Child" for them and become emotionally drained. As the child grows they see the physical differences between them and their adoptive parents, this further highlights their strangeness and feelings of being misplaced in the family and the world.

Anger:

The child in anger is manifesting their frustration with the new situation, they cannot relax, they feel no familiar comfort in the home, the talk of friends and other family are not understood, they feel it is hard to ask for things without feeling awkward. Eventually their emotions boil over and they break. The anger is sudden and violent, often for smaller children breaking objects or destroying new toys as a way of expressing their grief and feelings of being lost in this new world.

Immaturity:

Even the older children will developmentally go backward in some aspects of their behaviour. Lying is very common, some is to please the new parent, saying they are happy (when clearly they are not) saying thank you more that normal (as an appeasement to the new parents) denying breakages or stealing money (to prepare for another loss - money is useful to save). Oppositional behaviour manifest in the need for self-reliance, the rejection of help by the new parent, the lack of a suitable role model that looks, thinks and acts as they do can all lead to emotional problems such as school underachievement and violence to other children.

The New Parents:

For the adoptive parents this time can be particularly difficult, they thought they were doing a noble thing, a good deed for society in taking in this child who had such a tragic start to their young lives. However as time passes and they experience all the emotional turmoil of the child's problem behaviour they become frustrated, angry, physically violent to the child in some cases and abusive both verbally and emotionally. The little dream child has turned into a nightmare of sleepless nights and constant battles for control. As there is no natural bonding the parents feel that the child in merely a visitor they look after until such time as it no longer needs them. As the child grows it looks like the biological parent and often the adoptive parents feels that the problems over the years are the fault of the dead parents and blame them for not teaching the child proper behaviour when they were alive. Even the most patient new parent will have a test of wills on many occasions with the child causing resentment and rejection.

The Genes Question:

There is no doubt that genes play a part in the physical aspects of a child's looks and growth. However this should not be confused with social development, that takes place within first the family, later peers and significant others. As the child grows they can see they are not like the other members of the family in looks and physical attraction. This may cause two psychological consequences, first a feeling of not belonging, the idea of the outsider and second the feeling of being mentally different. This is not strictly true but merely a need for self-recognition. This often leads to the older child asking questions about where they come from, who were their real parents, what happened to them, why did they leave me with you, am I bad person then, how can I find them? This is a time of great difficulty for the new parents as they have to face the prospect of a late rejection after maybe years if coping with their problem child.

The Second Rejection:

Many new parents will not be able to cope with the problem child and come to the decision to give the child back to the adoption agencies to re-assign to other parents. This is particularly true of child-less couples who take the opportunity to have a child from the earthquake as a substitute to not having one of their own. Others cannot cope with the loss of face. They told the neighbours they are going to adopt a child from the earthquake as a badge of honour. Later they have to hide the problem child from those same neighbours who now witness much of the behaviour described above. Those who do cope for a few years can still send the child away to boarding school as a way of some respite for themselves but the child sees this as yet another loss of trust. Some that develop severe mental problems can be hidden away or sent to psychiatric hospitals, many never to return. To the growing child this maybe the last straw, in a long line of rejections and painful experiences, often leading to long-term psychiatric care and attempted suicides or drug dependency.

In Summery:

The Chinese earthquake like many other terrible disasters led to thousands of children parentless, homeless and grieving. Many kind-hearted people will rush forth to help, nurture and adopt these tragic children. However not all the new parents are fit for this task even with the best will in the world can many of them cope with an emotionally scared child who has psychological damage that will follow it for its lifetime? For many of the children they would be better to stay in the area they grew up in and make a new start surrounded by the familiar. Children of loss bond to each other much more solidly than to strange adults. Questions of trust, security and routine are far more important right now than well-meaning people who think, with money, care and comfort them can take the place of the biological parent in the short term or the long term. No solutions are perfect - but new parents should be aware of the responsibility they take on with that child of tragedy! In this paper I have looked at the negative aspects of adoption for a good reason and that is to warn, stop and get new potential adoptive parents to think first and act with compassion second. Of course many children of adoptive parents grow to appreciate their new home and loving, caring parents. However no new parent starts with the ideal child who rushes in and says mummy I love you five minutes after they arrive. Realism is called for in this tragedy to protect the interests of the child and its future as part of China's harmonious society.

End.....

Ovidiu Balan conducts Dvorak symphony no.7 mvt 3.wmv

Compositional Structure I. Allegro maestoso II. Poco adagio III. Scherzo: Vivace - Poco meno mosso IV. Finale: Allegro The work, at approximately 40 minutes in length, is scored for an orchestra of 2 flutes and piccolo, 2 oboes, 2 clarinets, 2 bassoons, 4 horns, 2 trumpets, 3 trombones, timpani and strings. Composition History Dvořák's work on the symphony began on December 13, 1884. Dvořák heard and admired Brahmss new 3rd Symphony, and this prompted him to think of writing of a new symphony himself. So it was fortuitous that in that same year the London Philharmonic society invited him to write a new symphony and elected him as an honorary member. A month later, after his daily walk to the railway station in Prague, he said the first subject of my new symphony flashed in to my mind on the arrival of the festive train bringing our countrymen from Pest. The Czechs were in fact coming to the Prague National Theatre, where there was to be a musical evening to support the political struggles of the Czech nation. He resolved that his new symphony would reflect this struggle. In doing so the symphony would also reveal something of his personal struggle in reconciling his simple and peaceful countrymans feelings with his intense patriotism and his wish to see the Czech nation flourish. He completed a sketch of the 1st movement in 5 days, and he wrote to one of his friends: I am now busy with this symphony for London, and wherever I go I can think of nothing else. God grant that ...

Strengthen Your Child's Self-Esteem

Most parents want their children to have a healthy sense of self-esteem and many believe that low self-esteem lies at the bottom of many of society's problems.

Even though self-esteem has been studied for decades, its precise nature and development is still subject to debate. However, child development experts generally agree that parents and other adults who are important to children play a major role in laying a solid foundation for a child's self esteem development.

When parents and teachers of young children talk about the need for good self-esteem, they usually mean that children should feel good about themselves. With young children, self-esteem refers to the extent to which they expect to be accepted and valued by the adults and peers who are important to them.

Self esteem is so important in young children because it is a self fulfilling prophecy. The more confident children feel about their social, physical and intellectual success then the more likely they will succeed. Conversely, the less confident children feel then the more likely they will fail.

Children with a healthy sense of self-esteem feel that the important adults in their lives accept and care about them. They feel that those adults would be upset if anything happened to them and would miss them if they were separated. Children with low self-esteem, on the other hand, feel that the important adults and peers in their lives do not accept or care about them very much.

During their early years, young children's self-esteem is based largely on their perceptions of how the important adults in their lives judge them. The foundations of self-esteem are laid early in life when infants develop attachments with the adults who are responsible for them. When adults readily respond to their cries and smiles, babies learn to feel loved and valued. Children come to feel loved and accepted by being loved and accepted by people they look up to. As young children learn to trust their parents and others who care for them to satisfy their basic needs, they gradually feel wanted, valued, and loved.

Self-esteem is also related to children's feelings of belonging to a group and being able to adequately function in their group. When toddlers become preschoolers, for example, they are expected to control their impulses and adopt the rules of the family and community in which they are growing. Successfully adjusting to these groups helps to strengthen feelings of belonging to them.

Young children are unlikely to have their self-esteem strengthened from excessive praise or flattery. On the contrary, it may raise some doubts in children; many children can see through flattery and may even dismiss an adult who heaps on praise as a poor source of support--one who is not very believable.

As they grow, children become increasingly sensitive to the evaluations of their peers. When children develop stronger ties with their peers in school or around the neighborhood, they may begin to evaluate themselves differently from the way they were taught at home. You can help your child by being clear about your own values and keeping the lines of communication open about experiences outside the home. You can also help by teaching your child to socialize well with other children and encouraging interaction with children with similar family values.

Children do not acquire self-esteem at once nor do they always feel good about themselves in every situation. A child may feel self-confident and accepted at home but not around the neighborhood or in a preschool class. Furthermore, as children interact with their peers or learn to function in school or some other place, they may feel accepted and liked one moment and feel different the next. You can help in these instances by reassuring your child that you support and accept him or her even when others do not.

Self-esteem is most likely to be fostered when children are esteemed by the adults who are important to them. To esteem children means to treat them respectfully, ask their views and opinions, take their views and opinions seriously, and give them meaningful and realistic feedback.

A child's sense of self-worth is more likely to deepen when adults respond to the child's interests and efforts with appreciation or interest rather than just praise. Respond positively by taking their interests seriously with appropriate encouragement, for example, reading a book about dinosaurs or studying worms in the garden.

Young children are more likely to benefit from tasks and activities that offer a real challenge than from those that are merely frivolous or fun. Young children can be given appropriate responsibilities and tasks that make them a part of the community or family.

You can help your child develop and maintain healthy self-esteem by helping him cope with defeat as well as success. In the moment of failure remind your child that you still love and support him. Later, when the initial emotional response has passed talk with your child about the situation. Sometimes, it is important to point out that most people are not good at everything they try. Or perhaps there is a lesson to be learned from a mistake or lack of preparation. Teaching children to work past the small disappointments and troubles of childhood can help them handle the greater challenges life will throw in their path.

As a parent you play a primary role in the development of your child's sense of self worth and that sense of self will play a crucial role in your child's future success. Showing your child that you value and care for her and helping her learn to value herself can go a long way to building that important sense of self esteem.

Follow The Advice of a Successful Self-Published Author

Successful Self-Publisher says no to traditional publishing

Self-publishing a book can be the only option for many authors. I had to work long and hard last year on a book proposal for a first-time author to get her book published. Self-publishing wasn't her desired route.

But, we worked hard at the book proposal, and managed to land a $30,000 book advance, which is a great feat for a first-time author. She was happy she didn't have to to self-publish her book. However, we still had to write the book!

Most people would scream with joy at such a large advance. In fact, most first-time authors get far less, and sometimes nothing at all - just the same as someone who is self-publishing a book. My client was pleased, but also knew that after paying her agent and me she'd still have to have a chunk of money to spend on selling a book. Unless your publisher believes you've got the next best seller, they won't do much more than hand you a stack of post cards and a fistful of good wishes to market your book.

Michael Sterns - self-published author - figured it this way:

Let's say you get picked up by a big-name publisher, and you sell 50,000 copies of the book. That may seem like quite a bit of money, until you figure that (unless you're a really good negotiator), you'll get 8-10% of the NET sales of the book. Michael did his calculations. If the book sells for $16, the wholesalers get about a 60% cut. That leaves about $6. Then, best case, you get 10% of that, or 60 cents per book. Multiply that by 50,000 books (a wild dream in almost all cases), and you'll end up with $30,000. That, Michael figured, would barely get him out of debt.

"The decision at that point wasn't hard," Michael says. "All I had to do was see that even in the best case scenario, I couldn't pay my rent and I'd still be living on peanut butter sandwiches."

Math and finances aside, there was also the issue of control of book publishing. Like many self-publishers, Michael wanted complete control over the self-published book. Many authors become frustrated with the changes publishers want to make to their babies. Publishers are in it to make a profit, and not necessarily to make their authors happy; unless, that is, the author sells a lot of books. Then, maybe, both parties will walk away smiling.

Michael Sterns took the self publishing route for what are now obvious reasons. He also decided to use high-quality offset printers instead of POD (print on demand). "I believe that to be successful, your book can't look like it is self-published," he says. While print on demand quality is about on a par with offset printing in black and white, Michael felt that the quality simply wasn't there for full color.

His emphasis on quality, and of course his passion for his work, are perhaps two major reasons that Michael Sterns has sold over 33,000 copies of his first book, Kokopelli and the Butterfly, and almost 9,000 copies of the book's sequel.

What's in a good children's book? Great illustrations, a moving, touching, or funny story that educates, and things to keep the child engaged. When I gave Michael's books to my grandchildren, they couldn't put them down for hours!

Enriched Summer Reading Program

All of the work your children put in during the school year can be lost over the summer holidays. Reading, math, other information, and skills must be used to be retained. It is easier for children to get back in the groove of learning when autumn rolls around, if during the summer break they are given a chance to exercise what they have learned. Your children will be more motivated to exercise their skills if the practice sessions are fun. With that in mind, here are some ideas of activities to include in your child's summer plans to help sustain their reading and math skills.

Visit a state or local park which offers programs for children. Parks are wonderful places to learn about nature or history. Many parks offer docent-led tours and have special events or activities for children. There are signposts explaining park details which children can read aloud. In addition to these learning opportunities, parks offer great ways to exercise and enjoy the outdoors.

Iron Chef HOUSE. Cooking is an important life skill since eating is essential to continued survival. Have your child cook a meal for the family once a week. Skills your child will practice include reading, following instructions, understanding fractions, and learning about good nutrition.

Trip Planner. Are you planning to take a trip this summer? No matter how far you plan to travel, your child can benefit by helping you plan the trip. Get maps or connect to the internet. Have your child calculate how far you have to travel, what route you will take, how much it will cost, and where you might stop along the way. If the first trip agenda turns out to be too expensive, figure out where costs could be trimmed (stay closer to home, spend less time at your destination, include fewer side trips, eat at less expensive restaurants, get sandwich fixings at the grocery store for lunches, and so on). Have your child do as much of the planning as possible. Factoring how long it takes to drive to Yellowstone or budgeting for five days of meals for your trip are very real uses for math skills.

Summer Reading Program at the library. Local libraries usually run Summer Reading Programs. Help your child participate by visiting the library weekly and signing up for the program. These programs usually encourage children to read a wide selection of books. Once your child has read a certain number of books they are recognized for their achievements.

Summer Journal. Buy your child a blank journal or notebook and encourage them to keep a daily journal of happenings. It does not matter if there are no big events planned for the summer. The weather conditions, names of plants as they flower in the garden, thoughts your child may have, their daily activities, the activities of their little brother or sister, and anything else that is of interest to them can be jotted down in their journal. Recording their day gives them a chance to recall enjoyable happenings and is a great source for the "What did you do this summer?" essay they will write in September.

Independent Reading. Encourage any reading your child does of their own accord. If your son wants read about baseball, let him. A book or article he finds personally interesting will not only reinforce valuable reading skills, but will also spark his curiosity about the meanings of new words.

The summer break from school can be fun and an opportunity to reinforce key skills. Try including at least one of these suggestions to help your child practice knowledge they have acquired while in school. It will make returning to school a little easier.

Supporting Your Child Writer

There isn't a week I don't get a submission to our publishing company without a reference to being a child writer. Most say "I started writing when I was seven years old." That's average.

Most writers report trying novels in their nine to twelve year old time frame. Neither shock or surprise me, having both been a child writer and also having done a research project on child writers.

Simply put, if the child is the father of the man, wrote Ben Johnston, then why wouldn't a writer start as a child?

The question is whether or not your child is developing the writing bug. Some people learn to write and be good writers but then there is this group of child writers that we fail to recognize as prodigies. If it was music or art, then right away tongues would be wagging around town about this special child. With writers though, it appears to be recognized as a curse, nothing special and sometimes special but with reservation.

The reasons for this are two fold. Much like a parent who can't control what music their child is listening to on their IPOD, then the same fear is prevalent in the child-parent relationship. We want to make all kinds of decisions for our children, shouldn't we make the same about their writing? Shouldn't we be in charge of this? So in the first instance, we look at it as a loss of control when our child turns into a writer. And that is true. Much like a child that beats to a different drummer, we can't hear the drummer at all alongside our child.

The second reason is that writers when they grow up and pursue publication, they spend years on the invisible sideline, sending off mail to strangers. Nobody comes up to them on a street corner like they would with an artist and buy one of their masterpieces. If you're published, you're in the writing club. If you're not, well then, let's just not talk about you until you earn your stripes. In essence, writing doesn't seem to have any entry level job before publication. How can writing be a good job? The same fear a parent has for an unemployable child comes into play.

So let's start with the fear. You should be proud of your child for listening to what makes them different. Absolutely. No question. Much like a birthmark, this child has a mark. It is out of your control. Let it go.

As for the second instance, the most successful writers don't usually give up their day jobs until they are established writers. So don't worry about them starving. Your job as a parent is to give them a dose of reality that they need a job or career choice in the future. Let them know they can write on the side or adopt a job that has writing.

As for the mistrust with their 'powers' as a writer, imagine it like this. Surgeons and doctors look at people and can just see all kinds of things about them with a trained eye for observation. The writer is the same. They are going to see the same thing as you but with a different interpretation.

Once you let go of the fear about your child being a writer, you will be happier and so will your child. Most child writers will go underground if you are not open and honest. For example, if you make it a big deal that they write, chances are they are going to find a place where you aren't and write there. If you seek to control it, they will go underground away from you and possibly show their stories to teachers and other people, not you. If you push them, they won't want to be pushed and will push back.

Here are some of the advantages to having a child writer:

a. a fresh perspective, a sharp pair of eyes watching and listening to everybody

My youngest son started talking when he was three months old. He was talking to me often, saying a few words for about a month. Well, my husband made me out to be a lunatic of course. But the eldest son, the one that is a child writer, he heard as well because his eyes and ears are always open. Were it not for him, I think I would have thought I was wacky, in need of a straight jacket. A fresh set of eyes and ears never hurts anyone.

b. great recounting of events of interest

Think of the hours of entertainment as your child writer stretches out a boring, dull recount of a day.

c. amazing works of art freely given

Imagine getting a piece of work nobody else will get to see. Treasure it. In and of itself, it is a masterpiece.

d. intrinsic motivation

This means the child writer doesn't perform for marks but for the reason of wanting to create. This skill can be taught but is already inherent in the child writer.

e. laughter

There will always be odd remarks and laughter from a child writer. They are just simply out of step with boundaries that other people have naturally.

One of my parents favorite moments with me is the story that makes them throw back their heads and laugh even today. I was two and decided that smoking was disgusting. I took all my grandma's cigarettes and broke each one evenly before throwing them into the toilet. When they asked me about it after getting screamed at of course by grandma, I told them that grandma needed to stop. That's it. Just stop. Nothing more.

f. they get there faster

Because of the odd fish out of water routine, child writers develop a maturity in their work and in their life that peer pressure can't even shake.

g. a real bubble of imaginary world cushions them

In all my years at school, I must have show about five or six people my work. Years later, I met a man who had been in my elementary class every year. My mouth fell open when he asked me how my writing was going. "You knew I wrote?" I asked. "Of course," he said. "You always wrote."
The world doesn't seem so harsh with an imagination and a piece of paper.

So if your child has the writing bug, here are some things to do.

1. Take them shopping for notebooks just because you think they might need one or two.
All writers need notebooks and paper. Remember the more colorful and interesting the cover, the more inspired the child writer can be.

2. Give them a box to put all their notebooks in.
Let them know that this is their box and not yours. Tell other children that reading anything in their is punishable by a week of grounding. Don't hesitate to buy more boxes as needed. This prevents children from going through their work to lighten their load.

3. Only read when asked. Never read over their shoulders.
There is nothing worse than someone taking snatches of your writing out of context. For that reason, stay away until invited. An invitation to read a budding writer's work is worth a million snatches of words.

4. Take them to author events and buy them books from these real life authors.
The key here is to buy the books. If the child just goes to see the author, it won't last as an inspiration. Get the writer to sign something special.

5. Never push your child away with thoughtless comments or critiques of their work. Just don't do it and also don't correct grammar and punctuation. They expect that from their teachers, not from their parents.

6. Buy writing books for children and leave them on the bookshelf.
The key here is to be shy about your support of your writer. It's not broadcast news. It's hidden parental pride and children can feel that.

Much is made about the first six years of a child's life. I've looked into this in detail. Most people can't remember their first six years of life in particular but if you ask a happy child about their early life, they smile and laugh. The sliver of memory they hold is emotional and that's why it is important. So they will feel parental pride, not to worry.

7. Read to child writers. Always give them more to aspire to so they keep going.

8. Share your observations about people with your child writer.
My dad did this with me. He told me once that a man walks on the outside of a woman like the old days if she's taken. He pointed out one couple after another like this and those that wouldn't last. I know it seems silly that such a thing is a memory for me but honestly, it pointed me in the right direction to watch human interaction.

9. Watch old movies together.
This encourages your child writer to give up his or her work and spend some time with you. Do the same thing. Point out observations as you go through.

10. Respect your child writer.
There is nothing better than respect. Here's how it works. Say you are an Rocket Scientist. You have your thing and your child has his or her thing. Yours involves rockets. His or hers involves words. You cannot compare. To do so is to act without respect. So keep that in mind and negotiate the potential land mines by simply ignoring them. He does this and I do that. It's a match.

11. Realize that your child writer needs you just as much as your child that isn't a child writer. Closeness builds self-esteem.

If you've taken the time to read this article in full, you're probably a great parent anyway. Don't forget to use that same sensibility with your child writer.

Auntie's House

Auntie's House by children's author Dawn Aldrich and illustrated by Michael Aldrich was recently released by Halo Publishing International. The first thing readers will notice are the illustrations, which are filled with rich orange and green colors; nature-filled scenery with lovely smiling faces, healthy women that seem to have a good relationship, and a cozy home.

The back cover claims that the book is about the trust between the adult sisters in caring for the child and that the mother will return at the end of the day - but I didn't see that upon the first reading. What I saw was a child adjusting to separation. The child, knowing that her mother will arrive later and knowing she is with a trusted and adored adult, learned to spend the day away from her mother without struggling with separation issues. In fact, the child discovers that the experience was quite relaxing and enjoyable.

Dawn employs a rhythmic pattern with 3-5 lines per illustration in this 32-page book, which offers the family a way to slow down and really enjoy the book. Dawn's loving relationship with her family is evident in the first few pages where she dedicates the book to her niece and extended family members who helped with her children over the years. The author is formally educated in radio and TV communications and is an experienced writer of plays and books. She appears regularly in the public to act, speak or read from her work.

Auntie's House was printed in the US in paperback format, and that means fewer fossil fuels are spent on North American readers. I was thrilled to see on the publisher's site an announcement that they offer a green publishing alternative: recycled content. This is a great first step into the world of green publishing alternatives that permeate the industry today.

Various Raising happy, healthy and intelligent children

Like most parents, we welcomed our first new born with great excitement and anticipation. We have the usual things parents - to do his - always ready with a children's garden decorations, furniture, toys and clothing. We read books and went to classes, increase the boy in his first year. We had no idea everything would prepare us with, what deal was imminent. Vincent was born in the USA full term without complications. We brought him back to Singapore when he was 10 weeks old. Our goal wasput him in a multicultural and multilingual environment.

But when he was three months old, Vincent was a regular visitor to the doctor's office. He was with spleen and liver enlargements, which required weekly, monthly, then semi-annually diagnosed lever function blood tests. His enzyme should be at 800 + during the normal child under 50. His enzyme level stabilized, as he turned three.

At 14 months he got an infection from one to BCG injection. This requiredgeneral anesthesia and operation to eliminate the pustule. At two, the doctor found that Vincent had a heart murmur. Luckily it was a benign murmur put to growth. At 3, Vincent was a roadside curve that required three stitches over his right eye brow. At four he had a high fever for two consecutive days and had to be hospitalized. In between there was the common flu and colds.

I imagine many parents have gone through similar scenarios. But that was not theFace challenges that our beliefs, our strength tested, and changed the course of our lives. Vincent had reached all developmental milestones until we noticed he was different in one and a half years. He had no language. This meant he literally not one word of course. He did not call Mom or Dad. The doctor told us not to worry as the boys develop normal language skills later than girls.

We were really worried when he still had no speech at two years old. Thisstart another stream of consulting with specialists in ENT (ear, nose and throat medicine), neurology, psychology and psychiatry. It took more than two years to search, plan and carry out the evaluation. Vincent's hearing was tested. The neurologist could not find anything unusual from the visual assessment and referred us to a psychologist.

The meeting with the psychologist was catastrophic. She was more than an hour late for the appointment. Vincent lost the patience to wait and be wetPants in the evaluation, he had housebroken. The psychologist prescribed him as a "conduct disorder". This disbelief and confusion brought to us. The only positive result was accept a list of recommended schools, the children would like Vincent.

A dark shadow
We then sought advice from a renowned psychiatrist. I remember vividly the meeting of Vincent's Diagnosis: Pervasive developmental disorder, unspecified (PDD NOS). Ayman in office,Vincent was severely delayed in development, but the doctor could not the cause. The psychiatrist replied that Vincent may not always be able to be to live an independent life cast a dark shadow over the family.

Between the numerous reports we could send to Vincent in a private school with a special training program from three years ago. This marked the beginning of eternal salvation and learning programs for Vincent. To support the learning of spoken language,Vincent was introduced to sign language and so were the parents. It was listening to one of the happiest moments in life, Vincent called 'Mama' and 'dad' at the age of three years and four months. Although his language advanced level of one word two words in a relatively short time, get the speed of learning to a halt. The speech therapist noted that he improve his gross and fine motor skills before learning could accelerate language required.

At the strong recommendation of teachers andSpecialists, we moved back to Germany, as Vincent was five. It began a new chapter of life for Vincent and his family. Through specialized references, we were happy, a pediatrician, developmental disorders in children such as Vincent is. She has a thorough evaluation of Vincent and diagnosed him as a child with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Autism is a developmental disorder that typically occurs in early life childhood. Vincent was literally with minimal imagination and common sense, and wasinflexible to change. He had no eye contact, could not read social cues, had Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD) and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), showed significant delay in communication, and had gross motor and sensory dysfunction.

He showed symptoms of a typical autistic child, except he was not hiding in a corner. On the contrary, he was very sociable. We began a series of treatments with Vincent. He attended the private speech and occupational therapy for one year until theSchool could effectively combat their needs. He also took herapeutic riding once a week and swimming twice a week. Riding helped to calm him down and regulate his brain during swimming improves gross motor skills. He has both activities for more than five years.

Seeking the help of Mozart

In these five years we conducted Patricia Wilbarger brushing in two-hour intervals to reduce sensory disturbance, even though we were outside. At the same time, he was put underAuditory Integrated Therapy (AIT). He listened to Mozart filtered melody that supposedly stimulate the brain function differently from regular music. Later he had music therapy to stimulate creativity. He attended meetings increased 15 interactive metronome attention span. After three months of intensive therapy, he was clapping 1,500 times non-stop and consistently. We also have an engine employs specialists to improve his handwriting. To assist the U.S. law mandates public schoolsfor children with special needs. Vincent was just integrated into the mainstream kindergarten.

With limited language mainstream nursery school was extremely challenging for Vincent. He was easily distracted and so disturbing that he had to be brought out of the classroom. Frequent breaks or walking the school hallways were common. We had our fingers crossed and pray every day that he had a good day at school without incident. With drugs and consistent support for the learned VincentDaily routines and began gradually pick up language. During the first class language test and scored at 1%. This meant a hundred children, he was the last in language skills. At home we have been working on cognitive skills, and basic concepts of space, the features and functions with flash cards and a daily inspection of school lessons. We taught him phonics, time, number, size, money, etc. It was disheartening to teach him 10 cents more value than 5 cents, 10 cents if the coin isless than 5 cents. Vincent's language improved to 25% to 2 Degrees. He extended it by about 50% at the end of the 4th Class, professional far beyond all expectations.

After Vincent took languages, he participated in classes with less aide support from the special education teachers and the education.

Shifting focus

The focus has shifted the IEP for social interaction and communication. Socially, we've been through the times when went to language learning. WhileKindergarten, called him crazy neighbor kids and stupid. Fortunately, the name-calling was hard on us parents as Vincent could not understand them. He was never invited to a birthday celebration, from kindergarten through fourth grade. The school speech therapist to create programs for Vincent to role-play and sat with him to coach him during lunch time. We read books and wrote Carol Gray's social stories that show him the broad social rules of conduct for every occasion and alwaysalong.

He joined social skills training in a hospital and in the summer camp. Nothing came easy to Vincent. Everything had to be taught. He needed - and need - written rules and demonstrations in order to guide him through every social occasion. It was hoped that it would be able to apply immediately if he won broad-based foundations. All procedures and coaching paid off when Vincent finally three friends at the Fifth Grade.

He was invited to her birthday celebration. He invitedback to sleep on. He made some friends at the sixth grade. He claimed that two of them as his friends, with whom he spoke during the lunch time and played with after school. He was a Lone Ranger or not a target for bullies at school. We were fortunate that Vincent responded positively to all therapies and interventions. The developmental pediatrician was very pleased with Vincent progress. A psychological evaluation showed that Vincent continued in the above-average functionupper range of intelligence. He was no longer issue a significant discrepancy between the verbal and nonverbal skills. The doctor changed Vincent's diagnosis of Asperger's syndrome, the mildest form of ASD, at the age of nine.

Fulfillment of a dream

After many years of challenges, we started treatment Vincent more like a normal child. There are rules in the television set. He had to buy a supplement to his favorite games and toys. He learned how to do laundry, use the dryer, foldClothes, wash dishes and cars, sweeping floors, the vacuum cleaner, and change light bulbs, etc. He recently started his own breakfast, preparing to cook instant noodles, meat and eggs with a knife.

He needs these skills when he goes to college. We expect him to behave appropriately in public and at events. He said he was responsible for his homework, so we check his homework or reviewing with him before testing stopped. His duty as a student, it is also carried out scientificand to maintain his honor roll. He continued reading voraciously, especially science books and nonfiction. As he is not inclined to sports, he chose as his only form of sport fencing.

For many years, without change, is his goal to become a zoo veterinarian. He is on his way to fulfilling his dream. After difficult processes of denial, guilt, frustration, anger, acceptance and resolution, one has to come with his diagnosis. While we look for treatments that best suit him, wePlease accept, most of who he is and what he will become. We have promised to offer him what normal kids enjoy, and we expect him to perform not less than other children of his caliber. We see it more challenges before him and us, but we are confident that he allow a happy and independent life.

Tame the Wild

If I said, asked a million words and only one could be heard, I wonder if instead of worship it at the highest or just a mere moment, maybe next time we'll find the time. I'm not wasting particular vibrations in the atmosphere, not spending breathing thoughts of death, what is deserved, because all I heard from the diamond mines coming, was crying continuously child and they sparkle on refined finger where greed and desire to stay one. It is what it is. Take your piece and run before the questionsburn in the sun light poisoning where I do not react the feeling flat, sullen, how to, because I have this wheel for too long no longer about what is right or wrong was agitated. So I'm spinning in my soft linen dress feet covered with the dried mud of sadness stirs tears, they start in my fingers where my creativity stays, and I squeeze on the parchment to make sentences with the wet ink a cup of words for the masses to drink leftover remains of a child of God, a reminder thatis it possible to tame the wild.

Tips to improve your child's Reading

Anita Silvey writes in 100 best books for children: in a child's intellectual development offers more pleasure or excitement, as a book. Good "does not hold more memorable as a childhood reading experiences. Nothing And nothing ensures the success of a child stronger society than in Before reading from childhood to adulthood. "

While Silvey statements may be true, what about children who have problems with and / or do not like reading that? Read expert John JayPikulski said: "An impressive and growing number of authoritative opinion and research suggests that reading failure is all but a very small percentage of children can be prevented." This is good news for parents who are inattentive to their children's books frustrated. Settings and reading problems usually can be corrected.

But how can parents encourage their children to read and grow to love it? And how can parents help their children, which can itself through a strugglesingle word?

Kathryn Perkinson, in an article for the U.S. Department of Education, writes that to love children to read, you need to read aloud to them and encourage them to read to you. Read aloud to children they are familiar with the language and special stories. Read familiar stories, to love those children, it will encourage them to try and read these stories for themselves, for the Reading Recovery Council of North America.

Read experts agree that itPotter important to talk to your child about reading, perhaps talking about a book you loved as a child or discuss the stories of famous authors and characters, like Dr. Seuss, Lemony Snickett or Harry. (The case of Harry Potter book or a film made in the a-man was a game of questions your child to respect you, and what things are different between the book and the movie they ask you to talk when the film ends. This will also help the development of theirCritical thinking skills.) And do not forget, sometimes you ask your child what he or she is reading in school, and if he understands or wants to talk about the story or novel.

Another idea to teach reading and love for the pound is to the child read library or a bookstore with that, let him pick out books that look interesting. If your child learns to choose the theme of the reading material, he has not read more. Perkinson writes of the importance ofStarting a home library. Children, the books that some of their homes and their lives are used are more inclined to read, and be a better reader than their colleagues in which the books are rare.

Another tip can improve the reading to be found on The Family Education Network Web site ([http://www.FamilyEducation.com]) to "encourage reading a variety of activities." These activities can be as simple as asking your children to street signs and billboards, comic books, or read the newspaper comicStrip, play games with you or spelling. The Family Education Network proposes is often better to read and when books and other things) to your child read (magazines, comics are kept handy, especially in the car and other places (while waiting for appointments, in line at front the grocery store, etc.) where your child could idle time.

Although Richard Feldman, Ph.D., of Columbia University, agrees everyone should read, and he is a speed of experts, he stressedthat all people should be read in a suitable environment. "Fishing your reading at 45 degrees improves your reading speed and reduces eye strain." Feldman also says is important is not it bed to read, especially for a child who is working on his reading skills. Reading in bed makes a relaxed and not as a warning, and that can make it difficult for the beginning or alarmed readers actually read.

Other exercises to share with your children when they read questionsinclude teaching your child to hear words, sounds, teaching your child perceive and identify letters of the alphabet and teaching to see your child (or even learn by heart), whole words, especially those that occur frequently in the language. These ideas from the Reading Recovery Council of North America, the tips mentioned above, coupled with, will help your child's reading skills.

But one of the most important things to help remember Your child will be a better reader is seeking professional help for problems to read questions to be seen whether they are reading. As Pikulski says, can read the most obstacles to overcome and prevent future problems with the right tools, a little work-one both by you and your child 's.

Child Maltreatment - Effects on Brain Development and Behavior

Impact on child development, brain development, psychopathology, and interpersonal relations

Neglect, abuse and sexual abuse (commonly called physical, child abuse) have profound and long-term effects on a child's development. The long-term effects of chronic early maltreatment in a caring relationship (including complex post-traumatic stress disorder) of a child psychiatric disorders can be seen in higher, higherRates of drug abuse and a variety of serious relationship problems. Child abuse is a problem between the generations. The most frequent perpetrators of abuse and neglect will be deeply people who abused and neglected even damaged.

There are clear links between neglect and abuse and later psychological, emotional, behavioral and interpersonal problems. The basis for this connection is the impact that abuse and neglect have on brain development. DanielSiegel, medical director of the Infant and Preschool Service at the University of California, LA, has found important links between interpersonal experiences and neurobiological development.

We know that a child uses the parents 'state to' regulate the mind, the child's own mental processes. It is a sensitive, responsive and caring relationship with a primary caregiver that a child develops behavioral self-regulation skills, emotional control,Regulation, and cognitive skills such as cause-effect thinking, among others. The child's developing capacity to regulate emotions and develop a coherent sense of self required to respond sensitively and parenthood. The National Adoption Center found that 52% of children Adoptable attachment disorder have symptoms. In another study by Cicchetti, & Barnett, abused or maltreated infants exhibited 80% attachment disorder symptoms. The best predictor of a child 's system Classification is the state of mind regarding attachment of the biological mother. A birth mother plant classification before the birth of her child can predict age with 80% accuracy her child's classification system for six years. This is a remarkable finding. Finally, recent research by Mary Dozier, Ph.D. found that the plant classification of a nursing mother's child has a profound influence on the classification of the plant. She found that the> Child's classification system is similar to the foster mother to three months in placement. These findings are away for a strong non-genetic mechanism for the transmission of attachment patterns across generations.

Children who have been sexually abused are significant risk of developing anxiety disorders (2.0 times the average), depressive disorders (3.4 times average), alcohol abuse (2.5 times the average), drug abuse (3,8 - times the average) and anti-socialBehavior (4.3 times the average).

In general, the left hemisphere of the brain is the side of language, motor activity on the right side of the body, and is based on logical thinking language. The right hemisphere of brain responsible for motor activity on the left side of body, context perceptions, face, interpersonal and emotional processing and holistic perception. The orbitofrontal cortex (the part of the brain, just behind the eyes) is responsible for integratingemotional reactions in the limbic system with higher cognitive functions such as planning and language generated in the cortex of the prefrontal lobes. The left orbitofrontal cortex is responsible for the creation of memory, whereas the right orbitofrontal cortex is responsible for retrieving memories. Healthy functioning requires an integrated right and left hemisphere. A significant number of synaptic connections between brain cells develop during the first year of life in the middle of the secondYears of life. An integrated brain requires connections between the hemispheres through the corpus callosum. Abused and neglected children have smaller corpus callosum than non abused children. Abused and neglected children have poorly integrated cerebral hemispheres. This poor integration of hemispheres and underdevelopment of the orbitofrontal cortex is the basis for such symptoms as difficulty regulating emotion, lack of cause-effect thinking, inability to recognize emotions accurately, in otherChild's "inability to articulate of the child's own feelings, an incoherent self-esteem and autobiographical story, and a lack of conscience.

The brains of abused children are not integrated as good as the brains of non-abused children. That helps explain why abused children with major difficulties of emotional regulation, have built-in function, and social development. Conscience development and the capacity for empathy are largely functions of theorbitofrontal cortex. If the development is impaired in this area of the brain, there are important social and emotional difficulties. It is very interesting that the orbitofrontal cortex is sensitive to facial recognition and eye contact. Abused children often failures of the plant due to their birth parents deficiency are more sensitive interactions with the child.

Early interpersonal experiences have a profound effect on the brain because the brain circuitsresponsible for social perception are the same as those that integrate such functions, such as the creation of meaning, the regulation of body temperature states, the regulation of emotions, the organization of memory and the capacity for interpersonal communication and empathy. Incriminating experiences that are obvious trauma or chronic cause chronic elevated levels of neuroendocrine hormones. High concentrations of these hormones can cause permanent damage to the hippocampus, which is critical for memory. Based onwe can assume that psychological trauma can the ability to create a person and to keep memory and trauma affect impede resolution.

Abused and neglected children show a variety of behaviors that can lead to any number of diagnoses. However, effects of early abuse and neglect to child development can be seen in several critical areas. These areas include emotional regulation, behavioral regulation, attachment, biology, response flexibility, a coherent integrated senseof self through time, the ability to engage in affect attunement with significant others (empathy and emotional connectedness), self-concept, cognitive skills and learning, development and belief.

The effects of early abuse on a child's development are profound and long lasting. It is the impact of abuse on a child's developing brain, causing that the development of cognitive effects seen in a variety of domains, including social, psychological and. TheAbility to regulate emotions and emotionally attuned to another depends on early experiences and the development of specific regions of the brain. Early abuse causes deficits in the development of these brain regions, particularly the orbitofrontal cortex and corpus callosum, due to the toxic effects of stress hormones on the developing brain.

These results strongly suggest that effective treatment requires an affectively attuned relationship vulnerable. Siegel said,"As parents with their children securely fastened about the mental states that reflect to create their shared subjective experience, they are understood in touch with them an important co-constructive process of how the mind works. The inherent feature of secure attachment - contingent , collaborative communication - is also an important part in interpersonal relationships, such as the integration to facilitate internal in a child. " This has implications for the effective treatment ofabused children. For example, if in a therapeutic relationship with the client in a position to aspects of traumatic memories and experiences reflect the impacts associated with these memories without dysregulated is developed affect the client an expanded capacity to tolerate increasing amounts. The client learns to regulate itself. The resonant frequency tuned relationship between client and therapist allows the customer to make sense (a left hemisphere function) of memories, autobiographicalRepresentations, and affect (right hemisphere functions).
