What Makes Kids Kick @ Home
What Makes Kids Kick@Home is the compelling second installment in Fran Kick's acclaimed series on the Millennial Generation. Building upon the foundational framework established in the first book, this focused guide zeros in on what specifically inspires young people within the home environment. Recognizing that every generation faces a changing world, Kick acknowledges that Millennials (born 1980-2000) encounter challenges at an unprecedented speed and scale. These rapid-fire changes create a vastly different landscape from what previous generations experienced, requiring equally different motivational strategies and approaches. This practical resource provides parents and families with concrete, actionable steps to effectively reach, teach, and lead Millennial children in the home setting. Rather than relying on outdated methods that worked for previous generations, Kick advocates for fresh tactics that align with how today's young people actually think, learn, and respond. The book addresses the unique home dynamics that influence Millennial motivation, offering insights into family communication patterns, technology integration, and the evolving parent-child relationship. Readers will discover how to navigate the specific challenges of raising self-directed young people in an increasingly complex world. What Makes Kids Kick@Home goes beyond identifying problems to deliver pragmatic solutions that work. The strategies presented are designed to help parents develop their children into self-motivated adults who possess an internal, ever-present drive to make things happen. The ultimate objective is cultivating the next generation of leaders-young people equipped with the mindset and skills to KICK IT IN & TAKE THE LEAD! This book serves as an essential companion for parents committed to understanding and effectively motivating their Millennial children within the home environment. With its blend of research-backed insights and practical application, What Makes Kids Kick@Home transforms family dynamics and empowers parents to successfully guide their children toward becoming self-inspired, proactive adults ready to lead in tomorrow's world.

Eunice
In this “revelation” of a biography (USA TODAY), a Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist examines the life and times of Eunice Kennedy Shriver, arguing she left behind the Kennedy family’s most profound political legacy. While Joe Kennedy was grooming his sons for the White House and the Senate, his Stanford-educated daughter, Eunice, was hijacking her father’s fortune and her brothers’ political power to engineer one of the great civil rights movements of our time on behalf of millions of children and adults with intellectual disabilities. Her compassion was born of rage: at the medical establishment that had no answers for her sister Rosemary, at her revered but dismissive father, whose vision for his family did not extend beyond his sons, and at a government that failed to deliver on America’s promise of equality. Now, in this “fascinating” (the Today show), “nuanced” (The Boston Globe) biography, “ace reporter and artful storyteller” (Pulitzer Prize–winning author Megan Marshall) Eileen McNamara finally brings Eunice Kennedy Shriver out from her brothers’ shadow. Granted access to never-before-seen private papers, including the scrapbooks Eunice kept as a schoolgirl in prewar London, McNamara paints an extraordinary portrait of a woman both ahead of her time and out of step with it: the visionary founder of Special Olympics, a devout Catholic in a secular age, and an officious, cigar-smoking, indefatigable woman whose impact on American society was longer lasting than that of any of the Kennedy men.
