This is not a guidebook. It is a record of conversations on mistakes in up-bringing committed by parents who are filled with love and good intentions. Aleksandra Piotrowska uses understandable and exhaustive arguments to talk about, e.g. not forcing your child to eat, creating closeness with your child, using a dummy, teaching about hygiene, overprotectiveness, respecting rules, applying the reward and punishment system as well as how to support your child in difficult situations, e.g. a divorce. Thanks to this book we can avoid such mistakes.
