Publisher's Synopsis
Parenting is a gut check, a kick-in-the-pants, an eye gouge, a head-butt to the bridge of your nose at midnight, "why are you even out of bed" exercise in total chaos. This isn't an expert's guide on parenting. It's catharsis as I reconcile the craziness of my own violent childhood in the Deep South with the great-unknown of raising wild animals, or feral humans. I'm never sure.
An entertaining read for parents who've been there or are currently in the kingdom reigned by precocious toddlers and raising them to best their best possible selves. Great humor, made me laugh out loud at some points. Bring a box of Kleenex for the read though, because some of the sections may have you in tears as the family leans into life and learns an occasional hard lesson.
