The Essential Parenting Book Club
Parenting. Community. Wine.
For the entire history of humanity, knowledge and wisdom around parenting has been transmitted from generation to generation through communities. Once upon a time, there was no google, no parenting manuals, and no experts to consult. By observing how our parents, neighbours and extended family members raised their children we learned to raise our own. Watching after children was also a community effort, and the results were remarkable: children felt generally loved and safe, and parents were more relaxed and happy than they are now.
Today, many of us are raising our children far away from our families. The fast-pace of modern life means that not even our friends and neighbours are available to us when we need them. As a result, we feel alone, exhausted, and overwhelmed, and often so do our children. Something has gone wrong, and it’s time that we fix it.
It’s time to harness the power of community.
The Essential Parenting Book Club brings together a group of like-valued parents united in their love of their children, a good book, and a glass of wine. In a joyful, relaxed environment we discuss a well-researched parenting book, thus cutting through the noise of bad parenting advice. Most importantly, we share our own parenting experiences, creating bonds that can become life-changing.
