Right, let's get something straight from the start: I'm not your typical parenting expert... I'm the guy who got kicked out of high school, somehow became a teacher, then spent 25 years working with the kids others had given up on.
Little F*ckers is written for parents who think they are failing at the most important job they'll ever do, written by the man who has spent his working life negotiating the terrorist tactics of non-adult humans. It's packed with practical advice, science-backed strategies and stories from the frontline.
You'll learn:
- How to stay calm when your kid gives you dictator energy.
- When to talk, when to walk and when to hand them a banana and hope for the best.
- How to build a real connection with kids who push every boundary.
- Why sleep, food and movement matter more than any parenting philosophy.
- How to show up, with big-heartedness and superior weaponry.
This is not a book about perfect parenting. It's about embracing the glorious messiness of family life and celebrating the win of getting through another day, humour intact.
