Just Pretend You're Dead: (And Other Parenting Insights) Jason Eric Brooks 1. izdevums

Just Pretend You're Dead is a compilation of 20 essays from the frontlines of parenting, bringing you into the reality of what it means to be a mom or dad. Sometimes thoughtful, sometimes funny, the book is a celebration of the most overlooked heroes on the planet: Parents. Parenting isn't easy, a fact any parent knows. From pregancy to prom, from diapers to driving, the task of raising a competent human being can drive you to madness. But hidden within the complexities of parenthood are some of life's greatest moments: hugs, kisses, laughter, and the opportunity to get ditched at a Daddy-Daughter Dance. Sometimes, you experience great fear - an unexpected sickness or even - God forbid - a death. When you become a parent, there are no guarantees. And yet those are the risks that make parenthood worthwhile, and make this book one any parent should read.
