Parenting

Being a dad of four means I'm always learning, and usually a step behind. This shelf holds the books I'd pass along to another parent: guides for the newborn fog, books on feelings and tantrums, books on faith at home, and a couple that dig into the data behind the big decisions. A few of them disagree with each other, and that's fine. Every family is different, and I'd rather you take what fits and leave the rest than follow any one system to the letter. Where a book has limits, like being written before smartphones or relying on a handful of families, I point that out so you can read it with clear eyes.
