The book Perspectives on Midwifery and Parenthood explores contemporary issues relating to parenthood and midwifery. This book bridges a gap in the literature, where it highlights the close and unique relationships that midwives, nurses, doctors, other health care professionals and students enjoy with women and men during their transition to parenthood. Midwives work in close contact with and address the diverse needs of women and men during one of the most critical life's transitions, preconception, pregnancy, childbirth and early parenting and its long term implications on the psychosocial, emotional, physical and spiritual wellbeing of parents and infants. The chapters cover the transition and preparation for parenthood, midwives and parental-fetal-tie in pregnancy, perinatal mental health, maternal well-being, infertility, repeated loss and surrogacy, supporting early parenting following preterm birth, adolescent pregnancy and early parenthood, social challenges and parenthood including drug and alcohol use in pregnancy, intimate partners violence, migrants and transition to parenthood, fathers transition to parenthood, diversity of family formation - LGBTQ+ parents, breastfeeding, the role of spirituality during pregnancy, and midwifery and parenthood. Each person is unique and so is the response to parenthood, as the mother, father and family embark on this new lifeworld, a lifelong commitment. The book is a compendium of contemporary research depicting the strengths, opportunities, and recommendations how midwives and other health care professionals can nurture optimal, compassionate, respectful person- and family-centred care during pregnancy and early parenting, the transition to parenthood. .

Het derde deel in deze serie videobanden over kinderen van ouders met een psychiatrisch probleem is een speciaal voor hulpverleners bedoelde instructievideo. In deel 3 wordt aan de hand van een geënsceneerd praktijkvoorbeeld aangetoond hoe vanuit de crisisdienst van de RIAGG wordt omgegaan met een crisissituatie in een gezin. De hulp van de RIAGG wordt ingeroepen bij een gezin met drie kinderen, waarvan de moeder psychotisch en mogelijk suïcidaal is. Ze heeft zichzelf opgesloten en de vader weet niet meer wat hij moet doen. Na crisisinterventie wordt de vrouw opgenomen in een PAAZ en is er aandacht voor het gezin. De kinderen worden geïnformeerd over de toestand van de moeder en er wordt gezocht naar een oplossing voor de praktische problemen, zoals het huishouden en koken. Tussendoor wordt door drie hulpverleners aanvullende informatie gegeven over hoe te handelen in een crisissituatie en hoe om te gaan met gedragsveranderingen (gewenst en ongewenst gedrag) als gevolg daarvan bij kinderen. Van groot belang is dat de kinderen goed worden geïnformeerd over wat er precies aan de hand is en dat de problemen - in de meeste gevallen - niet aan hen te wijten zijn. (zie ook VC/0254, VC/0255)

What happens when love is no longer enough? Jane Bernstein thought that learning to accept her daughters disabilities meant her struggles were over. But as Rachel grew up and needed more than a parents devotion, both mother and daughter were confronted with formidable obstacles. Rachel in the World, which begins in Rachels fifth year and ends when she turns twenty two, tells of their barriers and successes with the same honesty and humor that made Loving Rachel, Bernsteins first memoir, a classic. Bernstein's linked narratives center on family issues, social services, experiences with caregivers, and Rachel herself--difficult, charming, hard to fathom, eager for her own independence. Bernstein invites the reader to share the frustrations and unexpected pleasures of finding a place for her daughter, first in her family, and then in the world.

Becoming Good Parents goes beyond a psychological understanding of parenting to include a deeper explication of the philosophical (moral) and existential (spiritual) dimensions of parenting. It counters the contemporary notion that parents can be satisfied with simply being "good enough" in their parenting practices, which encourages a sense of complacency. Through everyday examples, illustrative use of Harper Lee's moral novel To Kill a Mockingbird, and a reinterpretation of the theoretical viewpoints of psychologists Erik Erikson, Heinz Kohut, and Rollo May, along with philosophers Iris Murdoch and Michael Gelven, the author argues that the struggle toward perfection (goodness) is a natural human impulse. Parenting provides an optimal context for the practice of character refinement, which can potentially contribute to the psychological and spiritual growth of both parents and children. Ultimately, the book demonstrates that by becoming good parents, we become good persons.
