praying for your adult children by stormie omartin
This book gave me terrific insite and support with my adult children. Knowing that praying for them is the best thing we can do, can give us peace. I knew this all along, but Stormie's added input gave great strength. Their choices are THEIR choices, our response is our responsibility. We can support them more with prayer than anything else! I highly recommend this book and have already ...

Don't let ANYONE stop you from checking this out!
Why believe me? Because if the critics are right and I'm wrong, you've only tried one more thing and it only cost you ten bucks. This and the Lifeskills book are therapeutic dynamite! There are sections on what happened while you grew up and what is happening now, but section 3, "Breaking the Cycle," raises this book head and shoulders above all the knock-offs that followed it. (Note: The ...

Really enjoyed this course
I'm most of the way through this piano course and found it very well done! I'm learning on my own and the progression is perfect - just enough to learn and just enough practice pieces to start nailing down what they've taught. Only thing I haven't enjoyed yet is the blues/jazz pieces pp 107-108 - wish I had the cassettes to hear how these pieces should sound. Not exactly wonderful the way I'm ...

You will love the progress of the ...

Simply helpful
Where to begin...I spend much time in school learning theory after theory but with limited learning on how to apply them and how to make them work. Much time is spent on pathology and what it looks like and how to diagnosis using the DSM-IV-TR, but not much time is spent on using the techniques, so I picked up this book and wow what a helpful piece of writing. It gives you many ideas on where to ...

better than years of therapy
This book is right on. I couldnt put it down, got major insight and truly it has changed my life. The title seems silly and my husband said "why are your reading that?" Once I told him he was like let me see that when you are done.

Tales of an enthusiastic beginner
I really enjoy studying Alfred's Basic Piano Course. I started playing piano rather late at age of 31. I finished part 1 and 2 and now having started with part 3, I recognize true progress. The music in this book really starts to sound like "true" piano works, using more pedal and finger acrobatics. I have been looking forward to this book for quite some time, since my piano teacher indicated, ...

Excellent piano method
I am nearing the end of Alfred's All-in-one Book 1, so have only browsed this book. But, I can comment on what I like about the methodology and the books: 1. The progression of theory, exercises, and performance materials is very well thought out. When Palmer says this exercise should be practiced daily, do it. It really helps improve your technical skills. 2. The quality of the ...

Life Skills for Adult Children by Janet G. Woititz
This is a great book for Adult Children of Alcoholics. One of the shared characteristics I've learned about adult children is a yearning for what is "normal". This book helps to know how to 'pick up the many broken pieces' and learn how to move on from the childhood life-style we were brought up in and relearn what is normal. I've read another book by the same author and have enjoyed the ...

Wonderful
This book is as good as The Praying Wife, Praying Husband and Praying Parent and it is pocket size so it fits in my purse! The picture is deceiving, looks regular size, the print size is ok but I have great vision at 59 with a little help from contacts. I highly recommend it.

This book is really good for novice pianists
This book is really useful and covers most basic hand positions, chords, and fingering techniques and features dozens of songs that seem difficult to play, but with the techniques you learn, will grow easy like the Entertainer and He's Got the Whole World in his Hands. Again, this book lets you familiarize yourself with the notes nad fingering techniques to help build up to more advanced material ...

Be encouraged! There is help for you and hope for your child!
My husband and I were having problems with our 22 year old son. He lacked motivation, purpose and a job. This book helped strengthen our backbones, to do the right thing for our son and ourselves. Three years later, he has a great job, is living on his own and is a pleasure to be around. The process was tough, but the results are well worth the effort. I have recommended this book to another ...
