| | | Controlling Anger -- Before It Controls You
(http://www.apa.org/pubinfo/anger.html)
We all know what anger is, and we've all felt it: whether as a fleeting annoyance or as full-fledged rage. Anger is a completely normal, usually healthy, human emotion. But when it gets out of control and turns destructive, it can lead to problems-problems at work, in your personal relationships, and in the overall quality of your life. And it can make you feel as though you're at the mercy of an unpredictable and powerful emotion. This brochure is meant to help you understand and control anger. |

| | | Infant Child Care
(http://ericeece.org/pubs/digests/1991/howes91.html)
Close to half of all mothers of children under one year of age are now working outside of their homes. Their children are cared for by relatives, by in-home caregivers, and in family day care homes and centers. Family day care is the most common out-of-home child care arrangement for infants, but the proportion of infants in center care is steadily increasing. Recent debate has focused on the possibility that children enrolled in out-of-home child care as infants are at risk for later social and emotional development problems. This ERIC Digest evaluates the evidence concerning infant child care as a risk for children's social and emotional development. |
