A must listen, to make parenting enjoyable.

I bought a printed copy of this book when I had my first son and never read it fully. He’s three years now and I enjoyed listening to this audio book. Everything in this book resonates so well with what we shouldn’t have done this last three years and I am happy that I’ve found these secrets to raising happy kids not very late. I highly recommend this and my sincere thanks to the authors and all who made it possible, including the Audible team 👍

Muy útil

Como madre siento que el libro es una guía muy práctica para recordarte consejos de crianza (qué también aplican a nosotros cómo adultos). Si todos ponemos nuestro grano de arena criando niños más felices, queridos y seguros serán adultos más felices, empatices y menos conflictivos y el mundo será un lugar mejor.
