To Kill a Mockingbird. It has heavy themes, but if your daughter is a strong reader and mature, she will love it. Also, mystery novels are great for kids who have a been on liking law- no, lawyers don't solve mysteries but we do unravel problems and get to the bottom of issues a lot of the time. If she likes non-fiction, this book on Amazon looks popular:
https://www.amazon.com/Teens-Trial-Challenged-Law-Changed/dp/1575420813

Really, tell her if she wants to be a lawyer, she needs to read anything and everything she can, whether it is about law or not. As a lawyer I do a LOT of reading and the faster and more accurate you are in your reading and reading comprehension, the better. The only way to get better at reading is to read.

u/mauiramirez · 2 pointsr/stepparents

I feel for you. My SS14 behaves in a very similar way; but his visits are still more frequent, for now. I would buy her one of these presents:

https://www.amazon.com/Things-Before-Finish-High-School/dp/0979017300?ref_=fsclp_pl_dp_6

https://www.amazon.com/Leather-Multilayer-Bracelet-Genuine-Stainless/dp/B017TGV5WY?ref_=fsclp_pl_dp_5

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Creative-Illusion-Nightlights-Changing-Decorative/dp/B071X986SR?ref_=fsclp_pl_dp_2

I would buy one of those presents, if not to please her or let her understand that she is still welcomed at your home, at least to make her younger siblings feel better about the whole situation.

Good luck! Hugs!

Here's a comic and book if you'd be interested in reading them:

http://www.amazon.com/Flutter-Vol-Hell-Can-Wait/dp/1484085957
About a cis lesbian who has the ability to shapeshift, including into a male, and has a huge crush on a straight girl to the point that she pretends to be a man, believing that she would be able to have a "straight" relationship that way. She isn't trans, at least not identified as a trans man since she identifies internally as a woman even when taking on a male body. If she's non-binary it doesn't seem like the series is intending her to be. Still its a good story and a decent ending for its first volume. It also has a side plot that could be inevitable in real life at this point: a rally of bigotted right-wingers trying to ban same sex marriage in the USA. It's second volume is kindle only on amazon so far so i haven't read it yet, but hopefully its as good as the original.
http://www.amazon.com/Boy-Like-Me-Jennie-Wood/dp/0692238069/ref=pd_bxgy_14_img_2?ie=UTF8&refRID=0DBX3BECWSV19086RCVF
She also made A Boy Like Me, a novel about a self-identified trans man, though this isn't scifi or fantasy like flutter is. Very sad at times, even for a trans feminine person like me who wishes i could switch places with him...
http://www.amazon.com/Ready-Player-One-Ernest-Cline/dp/0307887448/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1445063355&sr=1-1&keywords=ready+player+one

u/Incorrect-English · 8 pointsr/autism

It's a good question, and I can see how some people wouldn't want the diagnosis to "define" their child or for the child to use it as a crutch. I can understand that line of thinking. It's not the same as having a child that lacks the comprehension skills to ever understand their diagnosis. A child that can understand might struggle with their identity, or might blame their misfortunes completely on the diagnosis.

But with my older child I've told him (the younger one is way too small to get it right now, but I plan on telling him too). I think it's still better for them to grasp it early on rather than have it hit them in the face later when they happen to check their medical records. It's lying by omission, and I wouldn't want my sons to lose their trust in me for any reason.

Telling them early gives me the time I need to guide them through their differences, and help them develop ways to deal with their frustration. We have an open forum where my older son is safe to discuss his worries, and I can educate him about how much his diagnosis should impact on his life, if at all. I'm removing the stigma as much as I can.

I don't consider myself above any parent that isn't the same, because all parents are different. Some parents take a very long time to accept a diagnosis themselves, and they might feel like it would hurt the family dynamic to reveal it, or they may have family and friends that won't understand. They might not even fully grasp what it means themselves. That's not their fault, because the stigma is there and it's going to take a lot of generations for it to be removed. I honestly think there should be a hell of a lot more support for parents to tell a child about a diagnosis because most of the time the parents are just left with the knowledge, and are frightened of taking the wrong action over it. And as I said before, they might be frightened of it having a negative impact on their child, that they might use it as a crutch or let the weight of it drag them down. The child would have to think about whether they want their friends to know, if they are in an environment where they pass as NT most of the time.

But this is why there should be better education on this, or at least some sort of emotional support, particularly for NT parents who are probably feeling bewildered (not exclusively, some autistic parents can feel the same). We have to work to remove the stigma, so that we don't feel afraid to be upfront and honest with our children, and so we can give them the right tools to come to terms with their difference and even embrace it, whilst congratulating themselves for the successes they have.

Books like this are a good starting point, if a little bit outdated now.

u/Yozora88 · 1 pointr/TwoXChromosomes

Yay, no prob! I thought of a couple more you might be interested in.

http://theweek.com/articles/749978/female-price-male-pleasure
This article talks about how women are socialized to not tell people they're uncomfortable even when they are, in regards to sexual experiences, but I think it applies in general too. Men and women are socialized very differently, and that can lead to problems when men assume saying "no" or telling someone they're uncomfortable is as easy for women to say as it is for men.

https://www.amazon.com/Here-We-Are-Feminism-World/dp/1616205865/
Yes, this is technically a book meant for teenage girls about why feminism is important, but I found it engaging as someone who is past my teens, and when they talk about what pushed them towards feminism, a lot of it is the kind of thing you said you want to learn more about: Sexism, sexual assult, double standards, etc. There are also a lot of essays from various women who come from many backgrounds, so it might be interesting for you to read.

Hope this helps!

u/sweetsails59 · 5 pointsr/AdviceAnimals

I'd totally recommend this book. It was an impulse buy on my part but it's a legitimate etiquette book.

Good luck OP, your aunt needs a serious reality check. Keep an eye out for her kid, okay? He deserves so much better!

u/Jurph · 2 pointsr/techsupport
  1. When you enter your IP in the address bar, are you using your public or private IP?
  2. Do you have a VPN or other tunneling software set up?
  3. Have you used ipconfig to verify that your public/private IP hasn't changed? (Also, did you have your router locked down to only allow connections from certain internal IPs?)
  4. Did you do a system restore because of malware? If so, it's possible that your router was reconfigured as well. Consider resetting your router to the factory settings.
  5. If you continue to have trouble getting people to help you, this book might have some useful advice in it.
u/random_account_538 · 3 pointsr/MLPLounge

I can't give you the advice, too much to type out. I can suggest the right books though. Start with "How Not to Be a Dick: An Everyday Etiquette Guide. Once you've finished that one and have figured out how to at least be civil, move on to "How to Win Friends and Influence People".

If you are a man, you should also read "Manskills: How to Avoid Embarrassing Yourself and Impress Everyone Else". As well as "How to live with a Huge Penis".

u/mbizzle88 · 13 pointsr/UofT

Based on your needs, I've got two recommendations for you:

u/Emicon · 1 pointr/Teachers

What kind of book does your assignment require? Long book, short book, text book? Just any old book on special education or are you looking into a more specific needs requirement (mild/moderate/intensive) or age group? There are lots of books on Special Education.

If it works for your assignment, I recommend this.

u/beautifulntrealistic · 91 pointsr/Sneks

Great advice, thanks! Here's a book suggestion for you, if you haven't read it yet.

u/groundhogcakeday · 1 pointr/Parenting

The book you are looking for already exists. Better yet, it was written by somebody else. At 13, your own clueless parents know nothing. The author writes in collaboration with teens who actually tell it like it is, in their own language.

From Amazon "On the one hand, nobody wants to be a dick. On the other hand, dicks are everywhere! They cut in line, talk behind our backs, recline into our seats, and even have the power to morph into trolls online. Their powers are impressive, but with a little foresight and thoughtfulness, we can take a stand against dickishness today."

u/cf8427e · 4 pointsr/Denmark

Skal vi ikke prøve at løfte diskussionsniveauet bare en smule, fremfor at komme med ligegyldige pladderbemærkninger, som at foreslå at rejse tilbage i tiden?

Det har været et ret anerkendt faktum i en del år, at mange ofre internaliserer det traume det er, at blive udsat for et overgreb (i.e. tyveri/røveri eller vold/voldtægt), ved at danne interne fantasier om hævn overfor dem der har begået overgrebene (se f.eks. Moe (1999) eller Greenberg & Ruback (1992)).

Hævnen indgår således som en af flere coping-mekanismer når man er offer og hvis ikke den bliver "respekteret" - f.eks. ved at man blot kører Anne Baastrup-linjnen og ikke anerkender, at hævn også er relevant, får du nogle mennesker med undertrykte og indebrændte følelser, der pludseligt kan komme til overfladen i en meget voldsommere version (negativt udtryk). Hvis man derimod respekterer hævnen som en relevant følelse hos ofrene, og erkender at straf og hævn hænger sammen, vil de typisk kunne bringe det i spil på en god måde - gerne suppleret af dialog (positivt udtryk).

Such a cute idea!!! My morbid little girl self would have chosen Lizzie Borden and scared all the other kids... hahahaha. For some reason in 5th grade R.I.F. came to our school and had a YA book about her among the offerings. Inside were detailed transcripts of the trial, photos of the murder victims that were taken at the crime scene, and news clippings from the period. Of course I chose that book to take home with me. To this day I wonder who the hell decided Lizzie Borden was a good topic for a kid's book. This isn't the one I read, but in the description it says it's good for middle school children.

u/CatalyticDragon · 1 pointr/WTF

An impossible Utopia like Japan, Australia or Sweden you mean? The US is closer to Zimbabwe in gun deaths that those places so well done there, if that's what you're aiming for.

A "Level playing field" is provided by a judicial system and enforced by the police (additionally the good police forces don't have guns either - UK), and not by allowing every Tom, Dick and Dirty Harry the ready ability to murder dozens of people in an afternoon.

I have a civil right to defend myself in pretty much any first world country I can think of, I can do so by running away, punching somebody in the face, calling the police, picking up a chair and throwing it. Running away from a person with a knife or a club is so much easier than outrunning a bullet.

Your article repost was pointless really wasn't it, it has no data and is not a study, it's some dude called "TZO" taking a logical leap and saying he thinks guns prevent some violence because they act as a deterrent. That's just baseless opionion, come on you can do better so let help improve your source material; This thinking comes from places like the 1995 Sheley and Wright book and the famous "More Guns, less crime" from the Lott & Mustard report.

The latter paper concludes about 1,500 less deaths a year countrywide had gun ownership been more widespread. It goes on to state that crime costs in total would rise by over $5 billion, because guns are the most valuable asset that can be stolen after cash and lead to a higher rate of burglaries.

So now you've got some old theories I'll show you that they have been largely debunked in about a dozen newer papers such as "The Effects of Gun Prevalence on Burglary: Deterrence Vs Inducement" by Cook and Ludwig that concludes, "Other things equal, a gun-rich community provides more lucrative burglary opportunities than one where guns are more sparse. The new empirical results reported here provide no support for a net deterrent effect from widespread gun ownership. Rather, our analysis concludes that residential burglary rates tend to increase with community gun prevalence".

The "Deterrence effect" of which you speak is also largely discredited in the area of nuclear proliferation.

Dude.. Way to be a dick about it... If you lost someone important in your life, wouldn't you want to say goodbye one last time before moving on. This has nothing to do with attention seeking. Let people grief in their own way.

The comment touches on some valid concerns BUT the commenter's bald criticism is pretentious and betrays a lack of social grace. Not to mention spelling ability.

The commenter incorrectly conflates an oral fixation with homosexuality, and then implies that the latter is a something worthy of scorn.

There are too many things wrong with this comment, so I'll end it here.

Here are some resources that you may find of use in your future critiques.

The trouble with trying to read people on the internet is that more often than not, you're wrong.

It would be an okayish burn if I actually gave a shit. But who actually gives a shit on the internet. You..... you do.

That's the sad part. Or the funny part, you decide since you have such a hard time telling the difference with your terribly unfunny jokes.

Pair this with a good joke book and maybe then you'll be a halfway decent human being.
