Adversity's Child By: Bettye Sweet, M.S. "This book shows the author's and the other six females' resilience. The transparency of their stories, their passions and their redemption are felt in each and every chapter. This book took me on a roller coaster of emotions, but once I finished it, I better understood how precious life truly is. I fully understand now that life is too short to hold onto pain, resentment and unforgiveness." -Shelby Alvarez, screenwriter and actress "If you're looking for fuel to help you power up and overcome adversities that you're experiencing, Adversity's Child is the book for you. This self-help book shares many stories of women who have overcome traumatic experiences and have turned those tribulations into triumphant testimonies." -Robin Sweet-Ransom, author of Taboo and motivational speaker "I was amazed about how little I knew of Bettye's early life. The other six females' incredible stories are also as riveting, constructed around their real-life experiences. You will travel with them all on their amazing journey towards redemption. A must-read." -Mary Ann Brevidoro, BFF Adversity's Child tells the story of seven females-three victims and four murderers-and their journey toward redemption. All of these women's stories involve childhood traumas. Each of them begins with Dr. Nadine Burke Harris' Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) questionnaire. Bettye Sweet's story of molestation pales in comparison to that of her niece, Robin. Cheryl suffers extensive abuse and torture at the hands of her schizophrenic mother. Eight-year-old Carla watches her mother murder her twelve-year-old sister and then is raised by an incestuous father. There's Rita, who's serving a twenty-five-to-life sentence for murdering her boyfriend, and Kierra-serving the same for robbing and killing the neighborhood storekeeper. Finally, there's Danielle, an entitled girl whose jealously takes the life of her boyfriend's baby daughter. But with all of these challenges, can the power of love and forgiveness lead all seven to redemption? You will be riveted to these ladies' life-changing narratives.

Not Just Bad Kids: The Adversity and Disruptive Behavior Link explores the theory that all behavior makes sense in context. If you understand a person's frame of reference – their background, history and experience – you can imagine what might be driving their behavior. The book describes the social, cultural and environmental factors that shape the lives of many youths, including early childhood attachment which sets the foundation for how they interact with authority figures. The book also delves into an explanation of conduct disorder which is characterized by persistent, repetitive behaviors that violate the basic rights of other human beings and break rules. Studies have shown that conduct disorder affects 1-4% of adolescents in the United States and oppositional defiant disorder is estimated to develop in approximately 10.2% of children. The presence of DBD is also known to be more prevalent in boys than it is in girls. As there is a growing need to understand why children and adolescent exhibit signs of hostility, defiance and isolation, this book is an ideal resource for this timely topic. - Encompasses both ODD and conduct disorder - Introduces readers to the social, cultural and environmental factors that play a crucial part in disruptive behavior - Demonstrates the interrelationship of attachment problems, chronic trauma and disruptive behavior - Discusses current best practices for intervention and treatment in youth with disruptive behaviors - Provides casework examples of patients with disruptive behavior disorder

The third edition of this handbook addresses not only the concept of resilience in children who overcome adversity, but it also explores the development of children not considered at risk addressing recent challenges as a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic. The new edition reviews the scientific literature that supports findings that stress-hardiness and resilience in all children leads to happier and healthier lives as well as improved functionality across the lifespan. In this edition, expert contributors examine resilience in relation to environmental stressors as phenomena in child and adolescent disorders and as a means toward positive adaptation into adulthood. The significantly expanded third edition includes new and significantly revised chapters that explore strategies for developing resilience in families, clinical practice, and educational settings as well as its nurturance in caregivers and teachers. Key areas of coverage include: Exploration of the four waves of resilience research. Resilience in gene-environment transactions. Resilience in boys and girls. Resilience in family processes. Asset building as an essential component of intervention. Assessment of social and emotional competencies related to resilience. Building resilience through school bullying prevention. Resilience in positive youth development. Enhancing resilience through effective thinking. The Handbook of Resilience in Children, Third Edition, is an essential reference for researchers, clinicians and allied practitioners, and graduate students across such interrelated disciplines as child and school psychology, social work, public health as well as developmental psychology, special and general education, child and adolescent psychiatry, family studies, and pediatrics.
