Great book, horribly abridged...
I thought a summary would be a super handy overview of the main points of the book, to help guide me in the right direction until I had time to read the actual book. Unfortunately it is SO brief it’s essentially useless. It’s more like a series of headings, with few examples. They should have aimed for a 2hr abridged version, time for more detail, while still making it super quick... as, anyone with kids knows, time is something in short supply! It’s such a shame... it just doesn’t give enough info to be useful. Maybe when I’ve read the book I’ll be able to have a quick listen to this to refresh my memory, but if you’re hoping for a quick listen to answer your immediate parenting questions, look elsewhere & read the book (if you have the time). :-(

This is a great little summary. I wanted to know if spending the money to get the whole thing would be worth it, if I agreed with the ideas, and if those ideas would be applicable to my life. This little summary was able to answer those questions for me.
