My fav excerpt from the book:
“…by the time most people pick up a parenting book, it is far too late. Most of the things that matter were decided long ago–who you are, whom you married, what kind of life you lead. If you are smart, hardworking, well eduçated, well paid, and married to someone equally fortunate, then your children are more likely to succeed. (Nor does it hurt, in all likelihood, to be honest, thoughtful, loving, and curious about the world.) But it isn’t so much a matter of what you do as a parent it’s who you are. In this regard, an overbearing parent is a lot like a political candidate who believes that money wins elections, whereas in truth, all the money in the world can’t get a candidate elected if the voters don’t like him to start with.”
Thoughts? 🙂
