Not everything about this approach resonated with me, but I can tell that just having this voice in my head while going throughout my days with my kids made a real difference in how overwhelmed I felt by them.

Really thoughtful approach to parenting, and relationships in general. Particularly liked the examples that compared how I might react in a situation, as an adult, compared to the expectations I often place on a child. Not every chapter applied to issues I'm currently having, but overall, well worth the read.

Probably a 4.5 for me, not sure why it wasn’t a 5. I think it’s honestly a really good book that sides with kids and wanting to work with them instead of expecting them to fall in line. I guess some of the role plays weren’t my style, but I would otherwise still recommend it.

I think parents need constant constant reminders to put themselves in their growing child’s shoes, and this book does it exceptionally well. You could glean a lot of the wisdom within this book from Dr. Becky’s IG if you aren’t sure if this is a style of communication is for you.
