Stress Free Parenting in 12 Steps

by Christine Kutik.

Now you may wonder what a Granny like me would be doing reading a book on parenting ! I was staying with a friend and this book happened to be on my bedside locker, and as I have an interest in '12 Step programmes' , it caught my eye. I wish I had had it when I was bringing up my own children because it is brilliant.

Follow this book's twelve simple steps for bringing peace and enjoyment back into everyday life.

Christine Kutik proposes a structure for daily life, with clear roles, rules, routine and respect. She shows how your family can grow together through enjoyable rituals, by being responsive to your children, by giving them the reassurance and room they need to develop their own abilities. She discusses ways of introducing moments of calm and spiritual connection into everyday life, and ways for parents to make much-needed time for themselves..

This is the perfect book for parents with no time and little energy - - - - - -with short, easy-to-absorb and easy-to-implament steps to quickly improve family life.

CHRISTINE KUTIK is a mother of two and parenting consultant. She is a director at the IPSUM Institute in Munich, which trains parental advisors. She lectures on practical issues relating to daily childcare and family life.
