Publisher's Synopsis
Susan Jeffers explodes the modern myths of parenting as no one has ever dared before. With humour and compassion she shows how difficult it is to be a parent and reveals the insidious guilt traps set by the child care 'experts'. She questions many fashionable myths and half-truths that add to a parent's sense of inadequacy and guilt and offers her own 'survival' tools.
Among the issues she addresses are:
* why parenthood can be a nightmare as well as a joy
* the difficulties the relationship with your spouse can suffer after a child
* how drastically life can change with parenthood
* why mothers should not feel guilty to go back to work
* how we can have great fulfilment with - or without - children
This is the most liberating book parents will ever read!
