Dani Johnson of multi-level marketing fame and mother of 5 speaks out against pornography: what the marketers are doing to addict your children and what she does with her own children. This was our most popular ‘cast; it ia rerun from 2009.

Here is a more current article, covering dangers of social media, pf which many parents are unaware.

It is not true that parental controls are adequate. It is not true that if you peruse your child’s social media account that you see what went on. It is true that it is very difficult to un-see something after you have seen in.

I was particularly weirded out that the word “prude” was on the blog page. I remember when I was young, a more open view of sex, in short of extra-marital and public sex was encouraged by the use of the term “healthy minded.” Now, if you don’t want your child bullied, addicted to sex, or engaging in suicide… are you now to be branded a prude? Lord help us!

Dr. Lendell Braud, Ph.D. has a scientifically tested but fun way to help people with trauma, especially children. Whyen she discovered that many of the children she was working with had learning disabilities, she innovated a new form of therapy, using visual imagery –rather than talk therapy. It turned out that the visual images worked very well. Since then, Dr. Braud has offered many scientific papers on this new method. This advance is very hopeful not only for so many children who are traumatized but also for many people who have not found help in the usual talk therapy. She had many years of experience with children especially, has had a career teaching at the university level, and has contributed to scientific knowledge. Today she talks with us on a level that anyone can understand and make use of.

For more information, please go to her new website: createanimagetherapy.com.

If you are interested in contacting her for counseling, she is available in Conroe, Texas. If you are a counselor/therapist and would like to be trained in her method, please contact her at 936-447-4404 to join her list so she can let you know when/where she will next be offering a training in her method.

New discovery for me and for many people I hear from: a set of better books, all with themes that develop character for children: Carl Sommer at Advance Publishing.

Not long ago, in a group of women one said, “I have been looking everywhere.. and I just can’t find good books for my grandchildren.” Everyone nodded. Yes, I knew that for 40 years stories with morals were not welcomed in the publishing industry. Then I received, as a gift for joining the Christian Educators Association International, a book entitled Character Under Attack.It was Carl Sommer’s book, telling how he had faced this and overcome it by starting his own publishing house.

I went to see him. He gave me an interview. I bought books! They are high quality, well bound — and on discount. Listen to the interview! IN it he offers our listeners a 25% discount for typing in the promo code “great.” Only through September 2017. You may also find some library bound books still on close-out. This would be a great find for preschools! Hurry; those may be gone already. And you will find that if you buy over $50.00, you get free shipping.

This was the week of the great eclipse. Probably you and friends enjoyed seeing it. Perhaps you have had a chance to enjoy the science around it. How about now considering possible spiritual import? Okay, balance, here. No unusual predictions. On the other hand, yes, some realistic talk about already dire situations. Important for parents, teachers, pastors and anyone who deals with youth.

Book: Learn at Home for Great Shalom
I was recently told that homeschoolers often wonder what to do when they experience a problem such as a reluctant reader. Curricula choices don’t solve the need for direction. This book does. It helps you be sure you are meeting all your students’ special needs.

How to Not Lose Your Faith in College, Rather, Loose It
So important, as you prepare your student for college that you also give him or her a faith that stands up to the onslaught of unbelieving professors. Most churches don’t. A bishop asked me to write this because he didn’t know what to say to his children. Here is help.

Next week, a great interview from someone who has offered a great line of books for children — that teach character. Be sure to tell everyone it is coming.
