The practice of consultation provides a solution to this dilemma, by focusing on the decision-making process as a joint search for truth, in which each person’s perceptions and ideas contribute to a fuller understanding of the reality of a given situation, and consequently to better decisions. The practice of consultation is based on certain guidelines that encourage all participants to share ...

In The Kids Are Not Alright, Philip Wire explores the evidence (it's ugly) and proposes an explanation. Beginning with an accessible summary of how panic, anxiety, and related conditions work in the brain and...

This book is the culmination of a lifetime of love and lessons that have shaped my personal journey from a young man in crisis to a champion for children. There were critical moments in my story where self-appointed “Hope Dealers” like my mother, Alice Lovelace, and my educator, Dr. Lorraine Wilson, intervened in my projected course to failure. The lessons I learned from them became the foundation of my own work with and for young people facing challenges that they often did not believe they can face alone: hopelessness, shame, disability, tragic home life, generally summed up as the ...

One of the most critical issues prevalent in America’s educational system is the high school dropout rate (Barton, 2005). The problem of school dropouts is widespread among most of the nation’s school districts (Christenson & Thurlow, 2004). Over 50 years ago, Conant (1961) wrote that America was allowing “social dynamite” to accumulate in its most populated areas of the nation. In these areas of our nation, the dropout rates are alarming and are partially the result of several predictor variables! DROPPED was designed to research the relationship between these dropout variables and...

Good behavior is a skill that can be taught and developed through practice. It just requires a shift in our perspective. If you have tried behavior folders, clip systems, or other interventions based on punishments and rewards, you've probably discovered these one-size-fits all approaches to behavior management all too often prove to be ineffective with the very students they were designed to help.

Grandparents will relive their high school years and share them with their teenage grandchildren as they read this compelling coming-of-age story from the 1950s. Tim Holcomb, Mark Easton, and the Fisher twins have been pals all through grade school. They are together so much that once at a school picnic, someone in fun called them "The Four Wheels." The boys liked it, and when they enrolled at Wilson High, it seemed a capital idea to launch themselves into high school as the Four Wheels. They think of themselves as a four-wheeled buggy. Still, this allusion didn’t precisely fit because a ...

Home schooling will not be easy, but nothing truly worth doing is ever easy. If teaching your children what they need to become exceptional adults both academically and morally was easy then they would still be able to do that in public schools. The public school system is failing because they look at your child as a body that fills a seat which is worth a certain amount of money to the school system and as a mind to conduct social experimentation on.

There is a war against your children. Every day, kids of all ages are bombarded with the enemy's lies that war against their God-given identities and divine destinies. But when kids speak God’s truth over themselves, their minds are renewed and they become rooted in a healthy, Bible-based identity. In God’s Got This: Power Decrees to Overcome Problems, Step into Purpose, and Receive Promises, notable apostolic leader and prophet Tim Sheets teams up with his daughter, Rachel Shafer, to provide a powerful resource—biblical decrees that kids can speak over themselves in every season of life.

There are several cultural changes that put our youth at risk. It is time to acknowledge these issues and deal with them in a positive and resolute manner.
