My Mother Wears Combat Boots: A Parenting Guide for the Rest of Us by Jessica Mills

3.0

This book is far less radical for us American punk parents than it was when it was published, but is still good to add you a diverse list of pregnancy and child stewarding books. Like almost every other parenting and birth book out there, this one is a reflection of the author's views, but sometimes tries to seem as if it more generally represents a punk standard.

Might be triggering for folks on issues of gender and anti-femme sentiment, as well as heteronormativity.

By today's standards it's lacking an antiracist element too.

For other books in this vein try rad families.
