Caring for Children and the World Since I was a young child, I have been interested in working to create a just and peaceful world. Thinking about the suffering, violence and poverty that some people endure drives me to keep trying to change things. There are so many ways for us to help each other, and the best way is through connecting. We are a social species and we need each other to be truly happy. I have written guides, articles and children’s books to work toward achieving world peace. I believe that peace starts in the family. Children who are given respect and love, respect and love in turn. Children taught to feel what another person feels and to see the world as bigger than themselves will have the tools necessary to help our world achieve peace. The Caring and Connected Parenting Guide is an easy to understand resource for new parents. Parents from abusive homes will find a section dedicated to them to help them transition into being the parent who provides a safe and loving home. The guide is based on findings from interpersonal neurobiology. Ending Violence in Our World, the Key is YOU examines the dominator and partnership models of human culture (Riane Eisler, The Chalice and the Blade). Starting with the self, proceeding to intimate relationships and then community, structures are examined and action is taken to shift toward partnership. This guide is easily accessible, written for use across the world with diverse groups to encourage interaction, dialogue and action. Abuse, Neglect and the Brain was written to draw attention to the permanent physical changes that occur to a child’s brain who is from an abusive or neglectful situation. I have found much more research in agreement since this writing.
