  1. All Joy and No Fun: The Paradox of Modern Parenthood – Jennifer Senior

In All Joy and No Fun, award-winning journalist Jennifer Senior , analyzes the many ways children reshape their parents’ lives, whether it’s their marriages, their jobs, their habits, their hobbies, their friendships, or their internal senses of self. She argues that changes in the last half century have radically altered the roles of today’s mothers and fathers, making their mandates at once more complex and far less clear.

This book, besides answering some of most complex questions of modern parents, also makes us reconsider some of our culture’s most basic beliefs about parenthood, all while illuminating the profound ways children deepen and add purpose to our lives. By focusing on parenthood, rather than parenting, the book is original and essential reading for mothers and fathers of today“”and tomorrow.

Trying to do better and banging your head against the wall because your child didn’t meet your expectations, feeling like you failed as a parent.

There is a way out of your endless loop of frustration, according to this book by parent coach Nancy Rose. She paves the way out of all your problems with a remarkably effective approach: leading with acceptance. This approach will help you discover what you can and cannot change about your child and gain peace of mind as you raise your children to become their best, happiest selves.
