The Patient Parent: Because they're only little once : 9781738472505

Being a good parent is bloody hard.

David Willans thought he was doing it well. Until one school run showed he was far angrier and impatient than he wanted to believe.

He spent the next ten years researching and experimenting to work out how to be a calmer parent. Along the way, he started a blog, which turned into talks and workshops. Over the years, he's worked with parenting organisations the world over, training thousands of people on being better parents.

The Patient Parent sets out hard-earned principles and practical tactics that make it easy for you to be a calm parent. It's for people with children aged 12 and under, because David knows just how much kids change. This book is a short and simple read for busy parents. People who want to make happy memories with their kids before they grow up.
