Being at Your Best When Your Kids Are at Their Worst: Practical Compassion in Parenting by Kim John Payne
Did not finish book.
DNF at 61%
I realized I was forcing myself to read this solely to finish it and not because I was getting anything out of it. I can see how this would be helpful to some parents. For myself, I'm still searching for a parenting book on keeping calm that doesn't include meditation/meditation-like practices. I'm sure they work. However, as a full-time parent who works from home, free time is too sparse and precious for me to commit to such a practice. I'm sure I'm not the only one in this boat.
The writing was not engaging.
