## Description

There’s been a revolution in the family; it’s now all about the kids. We’ve moved on from children being ‘seen and not heard’, but we’re now plagued with the worry of ending up with ‘that child’ – the one who’s running amok and is ill-prepared for life. This book combines contemporary and traditional childrearing methods, bringing fresh thinking to some of the essential parenting issues of our time: • Managing screen use • Encouraging independence • Finding the balance between school and play • Compromising between parenting that’s pushy and not involved enough • Establishing the ‘best of both worlds’ approach that works in the modern world for modern families. In this manifesto of new old-fashioned parenting there’s no pandering, no spoiling, and definitely no dinosaur-shaped chicken nuggets at dinner time.
