Raising Independent Kiddos

Parenting is hard. It's a never-ending series of particular problems that require ambiguous solutions. And the frustrating truth is that the specifics of your child's situation aren't in the literature. Believe me. I've been looking for it for two decades. I'm a mother to four beautiful kids. When my second child was born with a disability, it took a lot of trial and error (and time hiding in the closet) before I realized the importance of holding myself back, almost sitting on my hands, so my kids could learn to think about where they had made mistakes, reflect on what they needed to change. "Let them do it themselves," became our family mantra. This book isn't about the importance of one parenting style over another. It doesn't tell you how important it is to hug your child, and it won't help you minimize tantrums at any age. It's about microparenting, which is when a parent tries to control every detail, no matter how small, of their child's life. The point of this book is to help you stop microparenting and start doing something that works faster and better.
