Comments about Parenting with Reason
“Almost every day there is a story in the news announcing another supposedly scientific finding pertaining to children, parents or families. Parenting with Reason not only offers thoughtful guidance but, much more significantly, provides parents with ways of thinking about what they read and ways to thoughtfully weigh the evidence behind the many claims they encounter. As a result, this clearly written, engaging volume should prove useful to all parents who want the best for their children.” — Professor Jay Belsky, Director of the Institute for the Study of Children, Families and Social Issues, Birkbeck University of London
“What makes Parenting with Reason exceptional is that it treats parents like grown-ups — overwhelmed and baffled grown-ups sometimes, to be sure, but grown-ups never the less. What they offer is something different — research-based evidence for parents to take into account when faced with the many important dilemmas involved in bringing up their children.” — Rachel Gould, counsellor and mother of 2
“I would definitely recommend this book to friends as it is so informative and insightful. There is such a wealth of information in this book and I like the way it explodes parenting myths that are not based on science” — Joanna Brown, mother to 5-year-old twins
