In a perfect world every parent would have a parenting masterclass
before the baby arrives. This is the next best thing!

At last, something for the modern mother! A sane voice amid the
shrill cacophony of childcare books
*Imogen Edwards-Jones*
I agree with Oliver James. Caring for a baby or toddler is
personal, because you have to tune in to the child's changing
needs.
*The Times*
Unlike other books of this sort, How Not to F*** Them Up focuses on
the wellbeing of the parent as a starting point for meeting the
needs of the child... This is a man who wears his heart on his
sleeve, and is not afraid to admit his own frailties. As a result
his theories come across not as condescension, but as advice from
one fucked-up-person to another.
