Beyond The Melting Pot
$27.95
In the first half of the twentieth century, the Jewish immigrants to the "Goldene Medeenah," - including their sons and daughters - generally retained much of their ethnic, cultural, religious, and social qualities.
In a variety of ways, Jews were united by their common heritage.
Moreover, many Jews resisted the pull of the Melting Pot through Jewish education, synagogue involvement, and Zionist activity.
But by the second half of the twentieth century most Jewish immigrants, particularly their offspring, began the process of assimilation in varying degrees into American society

Why does every conversation end in an argument?
Communicating with our children. Conversing. Connecting.
When did it become so difficult? And how do we begin to change it for the better?
This book was designed to help parents answer these important questions, and it is based on two fundamental ideas:
- The first is that there are no bad children, and no deliberately bad parents -- but that sometimes, despite the best of intentions on both sides, there can be bad relationships between parents and children.
- The second is that, as parents, we must do everything we can to save those relationships, to reach out and really communicate with our children, because it is only through talking to them that we can create an environment for inspiration and change.
In this compelling book, Shmuley Boteach, passionate social commentator and outspoken relationship guru, walks you through the critical conversations, including: cherishing childhood; developing intellectual curiosity; knowing who you are and what you want to become; learning to forgive; realizing the importance of family and tradition; being fearless and courageous.
As a father of eight, Rabbi Shmuley speaks from a wealth of experience. He has written a book for parents of children of all ages, from toddlers, who are just beginning to become aware of the world around them, to adolescents, who must learn to navigate all sorts of tricky social and academic pressures.
10 Conversations will help you stay connected to your children so that they develop the kind of strong moral character that leads to rich, meaningful lives.
