Critic reviews

"Brilliant, wise, informative, innovative, entertaining, and urgently needed... a doable plan for providing the kind of childhood kids desperately need today!" (Edward M. Hallowell, M.D., author of The Childhood Roots of Adult Happiness)

The narration speed was fast so I had to reduce the speed to 0.90 to make it more understandable and pleasant.

what a wonderful book x the slowing down and simplification of your day and your children's day ...to make space for more xxx not more stuff but more being together and being apart xx we don't realise how having so many choices and so many questions is debilitating for our families xx
well worth a listen !
highly recommend x

Feel some of this is unattainable in my family and it's also a little dated. But loads of interesting and thought-provoking stuff and I hope to implement parts of it.

lots to think about!

This book is a brilliant, informative and badly needed take on life itself. This is by far the best book I have ever read about parenting. I wish I had discovered it earlier, but I can still apply so many principles to my own life and my last teenager in the home!

A brilliant viewpoint
