Book Description
LET'S STOP DOMESTIC VIOLENCE! Hearing the Silent Cries: Exposing Wife Abuse puts relationships under a microscope! -- Is your relationship more like a see-saw or a slide? If it feels like a slide, which end are you on? -- Do you know if your spouse has the 15 Personality Traits of an abuser? Learn the dangers of abuse through the stories of two Christian women who committed murder after years of various forms of spousal abuse. Learn how it starts in the dating stage of life, what it is, why it is used, and methods to diffuse it. Date violence is experienced by one in four teens. This is why we need to educate teenagers of the 15 Personality Traits of an abuser, so they know the difference between sick and healthy relationships. Be sure the teens you know learn the traits! By exposing wife abuse, maybe we can prevent the death of one of the approximately 3,000 women beaten to death by their partner every year. Shirley Poland is a teacher and a storyteller, who received a B.L.S. degree from the University of Oklahoma; a B.S. in Education from Lamar University in Beaumont, TX; and a M.S. in Education from McNeese State University of Lake Charles, LA.

Her avocation is an after-dinner speaker and as "Mother Goose" for daycare centers, elementary schools, festivals, and health fairs. She has five adult children, and a number of grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Poland has taught Bible classes for many years and continues to serve in her church. Shirley grew up in Orange, TX and recently married her grade school sweetheart, now a retired minister, who has helped her discover her talents in painting and writing.

Silent Cries
Author: Jonny Ivey
Publisher: Inter-Varsity Press
ISBN: 1789741432
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 114
Book Description
When Edith was stillborn without warning, Jonny and Joanna were stunned and confused. Why wasn't anyone talking about baby loss? Where could they turn for help? Who would answer their burning questions? One in in four pregnancies ends in miscarriage; one in 200 in stillbirth. And yet, while the church offers resources to cope with suffering generally, there is often an echoing silence when it comes to the trauma of baby loss. 'When we lost our daughter Edith,' say Jonny and Joanna, 'it was painful indeed to find the lack of biblically rooted and pastorally sensitive resources.' Nothing really hit the mark, so, through tears, they wrote this book. It comes to you, or someone close to you, with a massive hug. It is the authors' prayer and passion that you will be amazed by our great God as you connect with deep truths from the Bible, bringing healing to your heart, mind and soul.

The Silent Cry
Author: Margaret A. Pitts
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 141078102X
Category : Deaf
Languages : en
Pages : 349
Book Description
Margaret gives searing and compelling insights into the isolated world of one deaf child who grew up in an era uneducated about deafness. The results were the very tragic consequences that shaped her life. The Silent Cry is a shocking story of molestation and abandonment, neglect and a multitude of falsely diagnosed mental illnesses. As a child, Margaret could not hear and her speech was unintelligible. These problems made it impossible for her to communicate with those around her. She then attended a school for the deaf and learned her primary language-American Sign Language, thus enabling her to communicate with peers and teachers. Her family was not willing to learn American Sign Language and this further compounded her awareness of isolation in a hearing world. She much later learned English, however, it is not her primary language as many like to believe. Because of her Deaf boyfriend?s suicide attempt, she was suddenly compelled to leave Delavan, Wisconsin School for the Deaf. The school has served deaf and hard of hearing students in the state of Wisconsin since 1852. WSD has an average annual enrollment of 180 students in grades pre-K through 12th. WSD stresses quality of service to students and parents. We focus on meeting the needs of students with disabilities in the areas of academic, adaptive education, vocational and social skills development. When she was pushed into a hearing world without verbal or writing communication skills at the age of eighteen, she was not able to blend in. Finally, she determined that she was abandoned on the streets where she was preyed upon by pimps who force her into prostitution. This is a chilling account of the exploitation of a person with a disability, but it is also a story of remarkable courage and triumph of the human spirit. A Truly amazing transformation! The work ends with the author's nervous and joyful reunion with self-awareness and self-confidence. It is also a beautiful love story involving many cultures. The main cultures consist of two different languages, two difference races, and the bridges built between them making this story unique.

Silent Cries of a Military Wife

Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 122
Book Description
Silent Cries of a Military Wife is a terrifying, sometimes hilarious, sometimes downright devastating truth that I lived for over a decade. For years, like many others, I accepted things that no woman should have. I allowed the one person who was supposed to give me love and respect treat me like I was less than nothing. I thought by accepting the treatment, at some point, he would see that what he was doing was hurting me and it would force him to change, but sadly, that never happened. I watched myself change as a woman, mother, daughter, and friend into a person I didn’t even recognize. I asked the military and those around me for help, but my cries repeatedly went unnoticed. When I finally received help, I was ostracized by those whom I called friends because of my decision to stay. Now I want to share my story with all of you and all those women who are silenced.
