My Review 4/5

I thought this book was a lot of fun, but there were moments of intense description that have nothing to do with being a parent, but more to do with becoming a mother.

If I had to summarize the book into a few succient points it would be:
* Don’t let you child dictate your life
* Let your child wait from an early age
* Your child is capable of reasoning and morality at a very early age
* Be consistent and authoritative not dictatorship

Reminds me a lot of Active Parenting Now but told in a conversational way.

Also by the end of the book I bought a baguette and was disappointed to find out it’s just bread.
