Parents want a special relationship with their children Parents care. They want to guide their children through the rough spots in life and help them make the right decisions. Research shows that a special parental connection is extremely important in safeguarding children against dangers such as substance abuse, sexual promiscuity, criminal activity, and suicide. This is more important than ever before in today's troubled world. But what does making this connection mean? Based on Bowen family systems theory, Connecting with Our Children shows parents how to build the connection found in better relationships. Now parents have a new way to think about and respond to family problems. The author examines common concerns, such as:* How substance abuse can repeat through generations
* Why fusions between family members drive conflict
* How family anxiety can erupt into violence
* Whether stepfamilies can create a new family unit
* What roles faith and humor play in a family
* How effective are special contributions made by connections with grandparents
Numerous practical examples and stories illustrate familiar situations and concerns, so that parents can learn how to deal with the often confusing situations surrounding their children, as well as those within their own lives. With a different perspective, parents can learn to overcome these difficulties, creating a stronger family and a happier, more open relationship between parent and child.

Small but holds alot
Color: Large Coffee
Love this bag! Dis a bit of research as I wanted a zipped bag, with outside pockets for my phone and not those inner pockets for holding credit cards. This is perfect for me. Very nicely put together and is a perfect color of brown. I will be using this alot.

Can’t Open Zipper All the Way!!
Color: Large Coffee, Color: Large Coffee
There is a bizarre piece of metal attached to zipper that prevents the bag from opening all the way. I bought one of these purses last year and it did NOT have this, so the bag opened completely. However, the leather is showing wear so I decided to buy another one, this time in dark brown. When it came, I noticed that the silky satin lining had been replaced by cheap, rough, dull material. I guess that’s okay, even though they raised the price $10. The zipper thing though, no way. I need my purse to be able to open all the way. I sent it back, to be replaced with the exact same item. Just got it today and it still has that metal piece on the zipper!! What the hell?! I included a pic of my old purse showing it zipped all the way open, and the new purse with the zipper stopped about 1.5 inches from the end. I truly don’t understand, but it’s going back again.
