Publisher's summary
Fostering children is a way of providing a temporary family for children, who cannot live with their own parents. Fostering can be a rewarding and challenging experience for both the foster carers and the children. There are many reasons why children may need foster care, such as abuse, neglect, family breakdown, illness, or disability.
Foster carers are people who have the skills, patience, and compassion to care for children who have experienced trauma and loss. They offer a safe and nurturing environment where children can heal and grow. Foster carers receive training, support, and financial assistance from the fostering agency or local authority that places the children with them.
They work as part of a team with social workers, therapists, teachers, and other professionals to meet the needs of the children. Foster carers can choose the type of fostering that suits them best, such as short-term, long-term, emergency, respite, or specialist fostering. They can also specify the age range and number of children they can care for.
Fostering is not a permanent arrangement, and the goal is usually to reunite the children with their birth families or find them an alternative permanent home. However, some foster carers may adopt the children they foster if that is in their best interest. Fostering can make a positive difference in the lives of children and foster carers, alike.
Fostering children can have many benefits, such as making a positive difference in their lives, learning new skills and expanding your family. However, fostering children can also have many challenges, such as dealing with emotional and behavioural issues, coping with loss and attachment, and balancing your own needs and responsibilities.
If you are interested in fostering children, you should contact your local fostering agency or social services department to find out more about the process, the requirements, and the support available.

In reality, it doesn't matter if children are born in relationships through marriage or not; it is positive communication that results in a loving, caring, and supportive relationship for children.

One of the very best scientific predictors for how any child turns out - in terms of happiness, academic success, leadership skills, and meaningful relationships - is whether at least one adult in their life has consistently shown up for them. In an age of scheduling demands and digital distractions, showing up for your child might sound like a tall order. But as best-selling authors Daniel Siegel and Tina Payne Bryson reassuringly explain, it doesn’t take a lot of time, energy, or money. Instead, showing up means offering a quality of presence.

The 13 chapters of The Art of War, each devoted to one aspect of warfare, were compiled by the high-ranking Chinese military general, strategist, and philosopher Sun-Tzu. In spite of its battlefield specificity, The Art of War has found new life in the modern age, with leaders in fields as wide and far-reaching as world politics, human psychology, and corporate strategy finding valuable insight in its timeworn words.

The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

Words. We use them all the time, every day, mostly without giving them much thought at all. We take for granted that they’re here at our disposal whenever we need them. But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start. It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything! The power of communication shapes our professional goals, our relationships, and our lives—so the words we choose to use carry a great deal of power.

Men call them gold diggers, women call them hos, but they call themselves winners. This is the book that society doesn't want you to listen to….

Models is the first book ever written on seduction as an emotional process rather than a logical one, a process of connecting with women rather than impressing them. It's the most mature and honest guide on how a man can attract women without faking behavior, without lying and without emulating others. A game-changer.
