Did you know that there are over 400 million active users on Face book, that more than 50% of those people log in to Face book daily and they spend close to 500 billion minutes per month interacting on Face book. Twitter now has over 12 million visitors with that number expected to double by next year. And what about YouTube? Huge! How many of you have Face book, Twitter or LinkedIn accounts or have a blog? Learning is social and we are social beings and that is the reason why this type of medium has just skyrocketed. So what's this all mean to us parents?
We at the Post Institute have a global message to spread that "Love" not "Fear" is the answer and to help get that message out, we're entering the world of social networking. That's right, our very own Bryan Post is jumping into the social networking universe with both feet. We even made him buy a new cell phone so that he could share his thoughts about love, parenting, adoption, foster care, you name it, from wherever he is on the globe. He's so addicted to Twitter now that he's "tweeting" several times a day about all kinds of things relevant to what we parents are struggling with. How cool is that!!!!
We need your help in getting the word out about what we're doing and in return, we'll be sharing with all of you some of the best thinking out there from a guy who is considered one of the foremost experts in working with children with challenging behaviors. A lot of what Bryan talks about works with all kinds of children and in all kinds of relationships. You can expect that we'll be keeping this stuff fresh with a team of people working with Bryan to make sure that happens and we want you to "join" the conversation and share your thoughts and comments with us.
There are a couple of ways to "join" the conversation with us and you can find each of them on our website at http://www.postinstitute.com or you can visit each site we're posting to by clicking the following links:

Adoption Awareness Series |
|
|
|
|
FREE information-packed adoption teleseminar series...
Someone you know has adopted, has been adopted, is in the process of adopting, fosters or is considering foster care or adoption, provides therapy or support, or has been touched by adoption in some way. An estimated 60% of Americans have had a personal experience with adoption. November is National Adoption Awareness Month and a wonderful opportunity to understand the people whose lives are directly affected, for better or for worse, by the impact of adoption.
Join me, Bryan Post, and my special guests November 3, 8, 10, 17, and 24 for five FREE, live conference calls, to hear intimate testimonies of the PROs and CONs, struggles and successes in adoption from the grown child's perspective--foster care, international, and transracial--and other expert perspectives on neurological and cultural factors in adoption. We even have time set aside at the end of each call to field questions of your own.
You might be surprised what you learn. The first call was a conversation with an expert on a neurological dysfunction common among adoptees and neglected children--sensory processing dysfunction. This is a can't-miss, EYE-OPENING session, especially if you know of a child who seems belligerently hypersensitive to touch, smell, taste, or light...or "out of sync" with their families or children their own age. The second and third calls were conversations about racial tension that may confront biracial families, and successes that are being made by "both sides" to cooperate in taking care of our nation's most vulnerable children. Upcoming calls deal with how to honor the culture of your adopted family member and how to see through a child's behavior into what their often traumatic experiences may have trained them to believe about the world.
Get the Recordings. If you can't make the calls for some reason, register anyway and receive a recording of each call in MP3 format for listening at your convenience.
Registration is FREE and Details Can Be Found Here: http://www.postinstitute.com/adoption-awareness-month.html

The Great Behavior Breakdown |
|
|
|
|
Bryan Post’s latest book is now available in print or as an e-book. Based on the popular Audio CD program of the same title, B. Bryan Post, America’s Foremost Child Behavior Expert, has identified 27 of the most problematic, serious, and challenging behaviors that parents face, broken them down, and provided step-by-step guidance and insight for transforming your family conflict immediately. This is a must-read book for any parent or professional working with children who have seemingly uncontrollable behavior. Common diagnoses for such children are Reactive Attachment Disorder, Oppositional Defiant Disorder, Bi-Polar Disorder, Conduct Disorder, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Depressive Disorder, and Autism Spectrum Disorder. This book, a follow-up to the groundbreaking audio program of the same title, is guaranteed to change the way you view these behaviors.
The techniques you will read in this book have proven effective in 92.6% of cases where a therapist or parent has implemented them consistently for at least two weeks. This is The Great Behavior Breakdown challenge: If you implement the information you read in this book for just two weeks, I guarantee a 50% dramatic reduction, if not elimination, of your child’s behavior. If you implement the information for 30 days or more, the results will be dramatic.
If you like The Great Behavior Breakdown, explore my other books, e-books, DVDs, audio CDs, etc. in our web store. |
