"Children have never been very good at listening to their elders, but they have never failed to imitate them."
And this is how this book can be (Spoiler alert ⚠️) Summarised!

"The Conscious Parent" by Shefali Tsabary
👪
My toddler (guess I can call him that now) is barely 16mo and God! He's ready to snatch my Drama Queen Crown already. As he gains more awareness each day, more challenging tantrums, tricks and ticks show up. And that was enough to shake me up from my comfort zone of fiction reading and pick up another 'informative' book. So here goes...
👪
TCP is a 17 chapter, medium sized, feel good read whose main focus is ground zero of parenting - before attempting to raise good humans, fix yourself first.
If you come from a good place, believe in the inherent goodness and wisdom of human beings, you'll find it much easier to understand your babies and grow up and grow them well.
It addresses topics like handing out chores to kids, dealing with anger issues - yours and your children's, doing "nothing" with children, dealing with expectations etc. The last chapter is the longest one and it's about punishment and dealing with bad behavior and setting hard boundaries.

Out and out, the book makes you feel good, gives you insight and, obviously, starts with the first step of good parenting. But if you're looking for specific hacks and tips, a Q&A manual or a more knowledge dense read, you'll have to keep looking.
👨👩👧
A nice start if you're diving into your parenting journey.
