Parenting by example. Using the simple, powerful message that turned Children Learn What They Live into an international bestseller with over 1.5 million copies in print, Drs. Dorothy Law Nolte and Rachel Harris bring their unique perspective to families with adolescents. Structured, like the first book, around an inspirational poem, Teenagers Learn What They Live addresses the turbulent teenage years, when a stew of hormones, pressures, and temptations makes for such extreme challenges for parents and children. Teenagers addresses popularity and peer pressure ("If teenagers live with rejection, they learn to feel lost"); the responsibilities of maturity ("If teenagers live with too many rul...

Every branch of knowledge (all disciplines) that exists is manifested in the teacher role, be it at the elementary, middle, or high school. A teacher is a disciplinarian, a psychologist, a psychiatrist, a nurse, a surrogate parent, a coach, a cheerleader, and an advocate to mention a few. Never before as in present day has the teacher role been placed in a position to deal with issues far removed from the actual role of imparting knowledge.
While languishing in the desert of depression, devout Christian Shannon Martindale assumed her complete healing would be the result of her faith. Exercising the principles offered by scripture which previously sustained her through the challenges of divorce, single-parenting, family deaths, remarriage, and infertility, she entered the valley of sorrow, searching for spiritual replenishment, yet still remaining unhealed. Guidance finally came by discovering the origin of her disorder physiologically residing in an over-sensitive nervous system. Through a psychiatrist who combined Christian therapy with an international self-help organization emphasizing the essential necessity of balance, today she maintains her mental, emotional and spiritual health by avoiding extremes. She now leads a normal life, integrating Christianity and psychology in this personal account of her successful recovery, offered for all who have walked the path of uncertainty, frequently experienced by depressed Christians.
