This is a joke book – a collection of real conversations I’ve had with my offspring, or that they’ve had with me, mostly against my will. I started keeping records for my own entertainment when they began to talk properly.
Two-year-old: What’s that? I regretted teaching them to speak once pre-adolescence and Covid lockdowns arrived – life phases with equivalent survival strategies and effects.
Nine-year-old: Good news! While you were in your meeting, I finished your puzzle!
Thirteen-year-old: I don’t like boys. I hope it never ends. Life is a set-up, and parenting is the punchline. As my mother once said, ‘I hope one day you have children. And then we’ll see who’s laughing.’

The perfect gift for expecting parents, the classic and hilarious Safe Baby Handling Tips is back with three times as many tips to keep you laughing while caring for your newborn. Worried about protecting your baby from the abundant harm of everyday living? Authors David and Kelly Sopp have you covered with Safe Baby Handling Tips, which offers laugh-out-loud guidance on baby care for anyone overwhelmed and befuddled-i.e., everyone-when it comes to caring for their new bundles of joy.

Beyond the safety tips, this handy guide also walks you through the many changes in lifestyle you'll face and keeps you on your toes with child-rearing quizzes. Why make everything up as you go along when this gifty, indispensable guide can show you how to be a little less incompetent as parents?

Acclaimed psychologist Jonathan Haidt reveals how the decline of
free-play in childhood and the rise of smartphone use among adolescents
is changing our world
Let go of perfect and become a transformative, positive influence in a child’s life while creating your own definition of success with this “wisdom-packed guide” from developmental psychologist and podcaster Dr. Aliza Pressman. In the age of high-pressure parenting, when so many of us feel like we’ve got to get everything exactly right the first time, Dr. Aliza Pressman is the compassionate, reassuring expert we all need—and the one whose advice we can all use. Already beloved by listeners of the hit podcast, Raising Good Humans, Dr. Pressman distills it all with a handful of strategies every parent can use to get things right often enough: Relationship, Reflection, Regulation, Rules, and Repair. The 5 Principles of Parenting doesn’t presume to tell you how to parent with “my way is right” advice because the science is clear: There’s no one “right” way to raise good humans. No matter how you were raised, how your coparent behaves, or how your kids have been parented up until now, The 5 Principles of Parenting offers “accessible advice, reflective tools, and everyday parenting strategies” (Daniel Siegel, MD, New Your Times bestselling author) to chart a manageable course for raising good humans that’s aligned with your own values and with your own children’s unique temperaments. Whether you’re in the trenches with a toddler or a tween (because spoiler alert: the tantrums of childhood mirror the tantrums of adolescence), it’s never too late to learn to use these 5 principles to reparent yourself and help your kids build the resilience they need to thrive. Through practice and normalizing imperfection, along the way you’ll discover the person you’re ultimately raising is yourself. By becoming more intentional people, we become better parents. By becoming better parents, we become better people. Let’s get started.

Have you ever had to deal with a screaming child, an obnoxious teenager or a class of 30 exuberant eight year olds? The Little Book Of Behaviour is amusing and informative, full of tried and tested strategies, suggestions and entertaining anecdotes. With jargon kept to a minimum, this insightful pocket guide has been written by a diagnosed dyslexic, who is passionate about understanding the causes and consequences of human behaviour.

During his following years working with people from a whole range of backgrounds including learning difficulties, emotional and behavioural problems and mainstream school children, he has analysed and refined his behaviour management skills. The Little Book Of Behaviour, trying to save the world one brain at a time!
