Cribsheet meets The Sh!t No One Tells You in this no-holds-barred, judgment-free parenting guide that sets the record straight on every hot-button parenting topic by longtime journalist and founder of the viral #NoShameParenting movement. What if you could do more for your kids, by doing a whole lot less? Parenting today has become a competitive sport, and it seems that everyone is losing. From the very moment that little line turns blue, parents-to-be find themselves in a brave new world where every decision they make is fraught, every action they take is judged, and everything they do seems to be the wrong thing. Formula feed? Breast is best. Breastfeed in public? That’s indecent. Cry it out? You’re causing permanent harm to your child. Don’t sleep train? Your child will never learn to sleep on his or her own. Stay home? You’re setting a bad example for your kids. Go back to work? Don’t you love your kids more than your job? Lindsay Powers—former editor-in-chief of Yahoo! Parenting, creator of the #NoShameParenting movement, and mom of two—is here to help parents everywhere breathe a collective sigh of relief. This laugh-out-loud funny, accessible, and reassuring book sets the record straight on all of the insane conflicts that parents face—from having a glass of wine while pregnant to sleep training, childcare, feeding, and even sex after baby. Drawing on the latest research and delivered in a relatable, comforting voice, You Can’t F*ck Up Your Kids demonstrates that it is possible to take the stress out of parenting and sit back and enjoy the ride.

This book contains proven steps and strategies on how to become the great parent that you are without losing your mind over the stresses that come with the ride.I know it sounds really impossible to think about parenting without associating it with stress. A lot of parents actually use that very word – stress – when describing how their experience has gone. The truth is, in the midst of all the ups and the downs, stress can be broken down into manageable chunks. Experts and medical professionals actually advocate moderate doses of stress, because in these levels the can even be helpful and beneficial. Stress can keep you sharp and alert. However, unhealthy levels of stress can not only become unhealthy – it can also become a hindrance in your personal relationships.But what is stress, really? Let us take some time to clearly define it before we go ahead trying to fight it. Stress is any form of emotional and/or physical demand that becomes too much to handle. This demand includes the small daily challenges – from waking your kids in the morning, to driving them to school, to the final hour of the day when you've finally tucked them in bed. On paper, these don't sound all that scary – but because they happen on a daily basis, the start becoming more trivial. Not acknowledging their effects can lead to harmful consequences. In the long run, all of these tiny hassles add up and build up under pressure. Unless they are dealt with properly, they can end in an explosion of frustration and anger – and there is nobody closer than your own family to be affected by this mess.The thing is, you should start taking these hassles more seriously – especially the big ones, like sickness, death, and divorce.Stress comes from all of the negative events we've just mentioned above, among many others. However, stress can also stem from joyous occasions – yes, even those that warrant celebration: promotions, birthdays, parties, and accomplishments. How is this so? Let's go back to our definition of stress. Stress comes from any demand that a person is unable to manage. In this light, it can be said that moving in to a new, bigger home, getting married, and having a new baby can be stressful because they are situations that aren't always easy to manage. Without the right stress management skills, these happy occasions can easily turn into a person's downfall. In order to prevent being weighed down by huge experiences, good and bad, you have to have the adequate skills to manage the stresses that come in life. To help you out, this book will teach you how to handle certain stressful situations, as well as life lessons that you can apply day to day for the rest of your parenting life.

Many moments in parenting seem unavoidable. Your preschooler will throw fits. Your third-grader will try to get out of doing homework--even if it means lying. A budding tween will dish out insults. And a teenager will simply take off for who knows where. At each stage, they are trying to test your boundaries (and sometimes your patience). While this may be a natural part of growing up, that doesn’t mean any of these actions are acceptable or excusable. So what does a parent do?Stress-Free Discipline knows that the one-size-fits-all discipline methods many experts tout can actually be too narrow for some concerns. Instead, parents need to learn how to determine the root cause behind their child’s issue, which will then help explain what is driving the behavior, why it’s probably more normal than the parent realizes, how to prevent further escalations, and how to instill self-control. Once parents grasp the underlying motivation, they can select the strategy that fits their child's age, temperament, and issue--including role modeling, setting limits, positive reinforcement, negative consequences, disengagement--and deploy it calmly and with confidence. Complete with an arsenal of proven techniques, as well as examples and exercises throughout to help parents personalize to their own unique situation, Stress-Free Discipline is the one-stop resource that will prepare parents for any challenge from any stage. Don’t lead home without it!
