Book Description
A New York Times Notable Book The shocking truth about postwar adoption in America, told through the bittersweet story of one teenager, the son she was forced to relinquish, and their search to find each other. “[T]his book about the past might foreshadow a coming shift in the future… ‘I don’t think any legislators in those states who are anti-abortion are actually thinking, “Oh, great, these single women are gonna raise more children.” No, their hope is that those children will be placed for adoption. But is that the reality? I doubt it.’”[says Glaser]” -Mother Jones During the Baby Boom in 1960s America, women were encouraged to stay home and raise large families, but sex and childbirth were taboo subjects. Premarital sex was common, but birth control was hard to get and abortion was illegal. In 1961, sixteen-year-old Margaret Erle fell in love and became pregnant. Her enraged family sent her to a maternity home, where social workers threatened her with jail until she signed away her parental rights. Her son vanished, his whereabouts and new identity known only to an adoption agency that would never share the slightest detail about his fate. The adoption business was founded on secrecy and lies. American Baby lays out how a lucrative and exploitative industry removed children from their birth mothers and placed them with hopeful families, fabricating stories about infants' origins and destinations, then closing the door firmly between the parties forever. Adoption agencies and other organizations that purported to help pregnant women struck unethical deals with doctors and researchers for pseudoscientific "assessments," and shamed millions of women into surrendering their children. The identities of many who were adopted or who surrendered a child in the postwar decades are still locked in sealed files. Gabrielle Glaser dramatically illustrates in Margaret and David’s tale--one they share with millions of Americans—a story of loss, love, and the search for identity.

Book Description
With everything we taught our children as they were growing up, we will probably see history repeat itself all over again. A happy child who eventually weds and has children of their own will no doubt raise their children the way they were raised. Times will of course change things, but the love will never change. Time and technology, no matter how great, can never change ones heart.

Baby Knows Best is a comprehensive resource that shows parents how to respond to their babies' cues and signals; how to develop healthy sleep habits; why babies need uninterrupted playtime; and how to set clear, consistent limits. The result? More relaxed parents and more confident, self-reliant children.

Book Description
The sissy baby is a very common and wonderful part of the wide ABDL landscape. A boy/man that wants nappiesfor sure, but also panties and perhaps a bra. They want baby clothes like we all do, but mainly baby girl dresses - frilly bonnets, pink outfits, a pink dummy, dolls to play with, and a feminine crib and nursery. This collection of four wonderful books is all about that. About boys who want to be sissy baby girls, even if they don't know that at the beginning. These are not erotic tales of sissy sex or sizzling adventures into sissyhood. Rather, they are stories of how real-life sissy babies appear and develop and the people/family around them that embrace and enhance their lives. You will love these wonderful books and the characters you will meet as they discover and realise their true identity as a Sissy Baby Girl.
