About the book: 2019 / Time for candid confessions. Do you do homework with your 5th grader? Are you making a craft from leaves and pine cones for your second-grader when she’s already been sleeping for a long time - because half of the parent chat is busy with the same thing? Do you remind, adjust, control and remind again? Of course, you help them not get a bad mark or a note in the diary tomorrow. But in fact, you are rather hindering them - preventing them from growing into self-confident, responsible, inquisitive and protective adults. Better give your children the gift of failure.
