Women Who Were Sexually Abused as Children
By Gil, Teresa
Mothering, Courage, and Resilience in Women Who Were Sexually Abused as Children unravels the veil of silence and captures the experiences of mothers who were sexually abused as children. The first step in both supporting mothers and disrupting the cycle of intergenerational abuse is to break the silence that keeps these mothers isolated and alone in their mothering challenges and successes. The experiences of mothering for this group of women need to be told in order to promote and encourage discourse. This book represents my commitment to make a contribution and to facilitate change for this large but poorly understood and disenfranchised group. I hope to cast a light on the therapeutic needs, concerns, and struggles of mothers who have survived childhood abuse and for the professionals who support these remarkable women.

Indebted
By Zaloom, Caitlin
How the financial pressures of paying for college affect the lives and well-being of middle-class familiesThe struggle to pay for college is one of the defining features of middle-class life in America today. At kitchen tables all across the country, parents agonize over whether to burden their children with loans or to sacrifice their own financial security by taking out a second mortgage or draining their retirement savings. Indebted takes readers into the homes of middle-class families throughout the nation to reveal the hidden consequences of student debt and the ways that financing college has transformed family life.Caitlin Zaloom gained the confidence of numerous parents and their college-age children, who talked candidly with her about stressful and intensely personal financial matters that are usually kept private. In this remarkable book, Zaloom describes the profound moral conflicts for parents as they try to honor what they see as their highest parental duty -- providing their children with opportunity -- and shows how parents and students alike are forced to take on enormous debts and gamble on an investment that might not pay off. What emerges is a troubling portrait of an American middle class fettered by the "student finance complex" -- the bewildering labyrinth of government-sponsored institutions, profit-seeking firms, and university offices that collect information on household earnings and assets, assess family needs, and decide who is eligible for aid and who is not.Superbly written and unflinchingly honest, Indebted breaks through the culture of silence surrounding the student debt crisis, revealing the unspoken costs of sending our kids to college.

What We Didn't Expect
By Schreiber, Melody
Ten percent of babies born in the U.S. are preemies. But that one word, "preemie," encompasses a range of medical and cultural experiences. There are textbooks, medical-ish guidebooks, and the occasional memoir to turn to ... but no book that collects personal experiences from the many people who have parented, cared for, or been preemies themselves. Until now. In What We Didn't Expect, journalist Melody Schreiber brings together a chorus of acclaimed writers and thinkers to share their diverse stories of having or being premature babies. The stories here cover everything from life-changing tests of faith to navigating the red tape of healthcare bureuacracy; from overcoming unimaginable grief to surviving and thriving against all odds. The result is a moving, heartfelt book, and a crucial and informative resource for anyone who has, or is about to have, the experience of dealing with a premature birth.
