While we have an incredible amount of statistical information about immigrants coming in and out of the United States, we know very little about how migrant families stay together and raise their children. Beyond the numbers, what are the everyday experiences of families with members on both sides of the border? Focusing on Mexican women who migrate to New York City and leave children behind, this book examines parenting from afar, as well as the ways in which separated siblings cope with different experiences across borders. Drawing on more than three years of ethnographic research, Gabrielle Oliveira offers a unique look at the many consequences of maternal migration. Oliveira illuminates the life trajectories of separated siblings, including their divergent paths, and the everyday struggles that the undocumented mother may go through in order to be a good parent to all of her children, no matter where they live. Despite these efforts, the book uncovers the far-reaching effects of maternal migration that influence both the children who accompany their mothers to New York City, and those who remain in Mexico.

The Cowboy's Hidden Bride

Turners: 1, Coopers: 1 Lance Cooper knows he shouldn’t try to escape his present problems by focusing on the past, but running Chance Creek’s Fourth of July Revolutionary War re-enactment is far easier than sorting out his family’s long-running feud with the Turners. At least it was until Maya Turner joins the historical society and upsets all his plans. Maya Turner loves history, but Chance Creek’s re-enactments are boring—and far too predictable. Everyone knows who won the Revolutionary War, after all. Why shouldn’t they inject some drama—and sexy intrigue—into the annual event? It’s bad enough Maya’s ideas are catching on with the rest of the re-enactment committee. It’s worse Lance’s heart is betraying him, too. How can he fall for her knowing how her family destroyed his? But the past has its own secrets—and learning them can change everything… Turners vs. Coopers of Chance Creek: BOOK 1: The Cowboy's Secret Bride BOOK 2: The Cowboy's Outlaw Bride BOOK 3: The Cowboy's Hidden Bride BOOK 4: The Cowboy's Stolen Bride BOOK 5: The Cowboy's Forbidden Bride

This volume explores the shared expectations that education is a panacea for the difficulties that refugees and their receiving countries face. This book investigates the ways in which education is both a dream solution as well as a contested landscape for refugee families and students. Using comparative, cross-national perspectives across five continents, the editors and contributors critically analyze the educational structures, policies, and practices intended to support refugee youth transition from conflict and post-conflict zones to mainstream classrooms and schools in their new communities.

Confit d'Époques

Réunissez quelques personnes de génération différente et faites-les parler de la société dans laquelle ils vivent ensemble. Vous obtiendrez une apparente cacophonie de ressentis et de solutions. Et peut-être même un conflit ! Qui a tort et qui a raison ? Je me suis rappelé les mots de Coluche : « Ce n’est pas parce qu’ils sont nombreux à avoir tort qu’ils ont raison. » Et d’acte en acte et de scène en scène, je ne me suis plus posé qu’une seule question : Mais au fond, quel est leur véritable but à Tous sinon partager du bien-être et de l’amour ? Et quelle en est la recette ? Eut-elle un peu changé car les ingrédients évoluent avec le temps, le plat obtenu n’est-il point toujours le même et aussi bon à partager ? Je vous offre donc non pas un CONFLIT mais un CONFIT D’EPOQUES. Bonne dégustation.

Forever Paired

Landon Davies had worked hard to start his own restaurant. It was a very different path than most of his family had taken. He was one of the few family members that were not military or law enforcement. But his hard work had given him a restaurant that was beginning to take off when a woman’s scream in the alley outside his kitchen changed everything. Kate Ellington had scratched, clawed, and outright fought for where she was in life. She was the first female passing game coordinator in professional football. Some people thought that made her the team’s weak link and a perfect target for exploitation. But Kate refused to cheat, even if it put her life in danger. When Landon saved Kate in the alley, it didn’t just earn him a kiss. It earned him a target on his back. Now Landon isn’t just taking on restaurant critics, but the people looking to manipulate the sports betting world. As Landon and Kate take on these threats, they find their reputations, their lives, and their hearts are on the line.
