Mrs. Smith: the boarding school enemas (Stories of J. G. Knox)
Mrs. Smith: the boarding school enemas (Stories of J. G. Knox) Review
Mrs. Smith: the boarding school enemas (Stories of J. G. Knox) Feature
A touching story of service, love and growing up in the 1950s.
Mrs. Smith is a dorm mother in an exclusive K-12 boarding school.
Sam, a motherless boy, finds the love of his lost mother with Mrs. Smith. She gives him enemas and loves him as the son she never has. Spanking, discipline as it should be done in school, is a minor scene in the story. Make no mistake. This is a story of love, not perverted or passionate love, the very proper love of a child and a caring dorm mother.
Having an enema is a gentle, loving experience, when properly done. Properly given enemas are never abusive. Part of the function of these short stories and books is to share accurately and truthfully the experience of enemas and colon therapy as they were experienced by billions of people.

Helping Children Cope with the Death of a Parent: A Guide for the First Year (Contemporary Psychology)
Helping Children Cope with the Death of a Parent: A Guide for the First Year (Contemporary Psychology) Review
Helping Children Cope with the Death of a Parent: A Guide for the First Year (Contemporary Psychology) Feature
The mourning of a parent's death can take many years—for some it may take a lifetime. The first year of separation, however, is often the most difficult and heart wrenching. The first birthday, holiday, spring, summer, autumn, and winter spent without the loved one often revives or increases the pain. This unique guide is organized according to a timeline of a child's first year of mourning the loss of a parent. It is a warm, insightful, yet practical guide to help the families and community members surrounding a child who has suffered such a loss to anticipate and cope with the many difficulties that arise. Practical suggestions for providing comfort, information, and advice are provided for adults struggling to help children endure the trauma. A range of difficult situations that bereaved children encounter are identified, helping to prepare adults for a child's potential reactions and providing them with realistic coping strategies.
Lewis and Lippman, child psychologists who have provided therapy to children who have lost a parent, suggest answers to questions that these children frequently ask. They offer methods for dealing with particularly difficult times such as birthdays, and share practical advice for everyday situations and events. They begin with helping the child through anticipation of death, if it is expected, or through the initial shock of unexpected death. Poignant vignettes from the therapists' experience dealing with young and older children are included.
