What a treasure. Lots of fantastic messages, tips and ideas. Will definitely reread later on.
Begin with the end in mind. Why do we discipline our children? Is our goal to punish or to teach them the skills they need to be safe, kind, and successful humans?
A must read for any teacher.
The artwork in the book is gorgeous - just look at the endpapers.

finally done.
provided some good insights into child psychology
A hard book to review because I see some faults in it (it‘s repetitive & sometimes contradictory) but I admire Gabor Mate and agree with everything he says regarding attachment and parenting. I love that he says ‘don‘t parent from a book - not even this one‘. He argues that we‘ve lost some of our natural instincts and because of this, & the way society is, kids have stronger attachments to their peers rather than adults which causes problems.
celebrating #christmaseve with a book and a fireplace. Reading a nonfiction book about toddler psychology.
A really great book. Divided into.chapters (each month of baby's life is a chapter) full of useful information. It also has chapters about baby's health and what to do if the baby in injured, tips abour travelling with the baby and others.
This really helped me during my baby's first year.
