Great book for parents
"If you have been under the impression that you are a bad parent, or that you are not doing enough to make your child succeed, pick this book of. The author has also written the book In Praise of Slow, and tries to make the case that more and faster is not always better for your child. He tries showing alternative ways from around the world, that still gets your child through to adulthood, but without the stress and micro-management.Rousseau once said: "Nature decrees that children should be children before they become adults. If we try to alter this natural order, we will reach adulthood prematurely but with neither substance nor strength." That sums this book and it's aim up perfectly." by a Book Depository customer
