Family Bond Paper™

From the Editor: Ladies, this is the last week of honoring us. I am soo sorry that many of you have not had normalcy in your life experiences. As a black female, that has listened to your discussions of your challenges, perhaps God allowed me to have a normal upbringing so that I can guide you from my normal experiences. Though, there has been many times where I was teased by black individuals (on welfare) because of my "normalcy." Please don't allow jealousy or envy to destroy opportunities for us to mature in family bonding and normalcy.  I understand that you all want a "piece of the pie." How do you expect to create the right kind of pie if you're not willing to listen to someone who has the recipe? I can only help those who trust me, and desire to get out of the bondage that you and/or your family is in. If you are sincere in wanting to change your generational mishaps/dysfunctions purchase my book, The Script in My Box. tatepublishing.com/books...

From the Editor Ladies, I hope your week hasn't been too challenging. As we prepare for the Memorial Day holiday, please take time out to pray for the 7 United Methodist black churches located in Kent County, Maryland.  Again, there are two pastors resigning and will be leaving as of June 2, 2012. These are seven churches with no consistent leadership. I am quite sure that there must be a better way to fellowship. If only they would vote for me. I CARE. I KNOW. I AM WILLING TO BE YOUR ACTING PASTOR 7 CHURCHES. My attending church didn't even have Easter Sunday service this year. It is so frustrating when you are trying to guide your own children by attempting some type of normal family structure and bonding time when divorced. Are you satisfied with your church/mosque/temple leadership? The New Monday Show We are still continuing with praise and worship:  Featured songs that were chosen during the discussion of the Book of Numbers (Holy B...

From the Editor Thanks, to all that wished me a Happy Mother's Day.  I was surprised of the number of viewers who also wished single males, rearing their children, a happy day. We as a society must learn to accept, honor, and appreciate our specific genders.  This behavior is another example of old traditions of family dysfunction, "we don't know any better." Yes, you do. You know that it is a dysfunction to have someone rearing children than their own parents whether it be grandmothers, aunts, uncles, single dads, etc. If we are trying to change a generational curse than we need to understand that this was a day to honor all mothers, not grandmothers. A daughter should have honored her mother which would be her children's grandmother. This is a major reason children become confused in regards to adult roles in their lives. I know it is challenging in some communities where it just seems normal to have dysfunctional households, as if back in the day d...

From the Editor "Stawberry shortcake cream on top. Tell me the name of your sweetheart, ______________." As promised, in this edition I have included some favored jump-rope chants for a family bonding opportunity. Ladies, don't forget to visit the "Fun sheets & Forms" tab on the family bonding portal, http://www.sherleneonline.com/ Why not purchase The Script in My Box as a Mother's Day gift. You can purchase through the portal or tatepublishing.com  (bookstore tab). Happy Mother's Day, -Sherlene, Your Family Bonding Consultant The New Monday Show Last night we concluded the discussion of the book of Numbers within the Holy Bible. The next airing will be praise and worship using the featured music selections. I also discussed my decision to eliminate my participation with the United Methodist Church due to the potential closing of seven black churches in my native community located in Kent County, Maryland. The NewMonday show can be viewed...

From the Editor For the month of May, I will be hosting Honoring All Women Month.   It is a time when I discuss specific topics targeted to women. I so enjoy the opportunity, and bonding time that we share during this hosted event. There is nothing like sisters getting together in a room to just chit chat.  This year's theme is "Ladies, young and old, come into the kitchen." As your family bonding consultant, it would be unfair of me to host my shows or even to write articles, books, etc.  focusing only on one gender. If there were no male and female relationships, how did all these little people get on this earth? I am a fourth generational, black, American citizen whose family holds a lot of history of being a part of this wonderful continent of North America.  When I created my company brand, in my home state of Maryland, I made a promise that all of my show topics and literature would be for both females and males.
