The Majorana File

Description

Vividly encapsulating the absurdities, heartbreaks, and possibilities of contemporary child rearing, this book shows how parents today are all too often caught up in a guilt-driven pendulum swing between parenting too little and parenting too much. Dr. Ehrensaft helps us imagine a society where we can overcome the treacherous balancing acts of work and family demands; where “good-enough” replaces perfect parenting, harriedness is traded for harmony, and children grow on a healthy continuum from infancy to adulthood.
