What to expect

So, you're losing your sh*t with your kids. You scream, you shout, you snap at them. You're cranky and irritable more often than you'd like to admit. You know how you want to parent; you want to be a calmer, more rational and intentional parent, but no matter how hard you try, you can't help it. You keep losing your shit.

Just remember: YOU ARE NOT A BAD PARENT.

How to Stop Losing Your Sh*t With Your Kids is as honest and compassionate as it is pragmatic about helping you work through your sh*t to be a more present and positive parent. Increasingly relevant to today's parents, who are more overloaded, overwhelmed, and overworked than ever before, Carla Naumburg PhD has the antidote to the feelings of complete despair and rage.

How to Stop Losing Your Sh*t With Your Kids is a simple, accessible and humorous guide to more effective and mindful parenting.

Critics Review

This book is life-changing; it really will stop you from losing your sh*t with your kids!

Esther Walker

Funny, honest and most importantly really, really useful.

Helen McGinn, author of The Knackered Mother's Wine Club

How to Stop Losing Your Sh*t with Your Kids will make you laugh out loud, nod in agreement and cry tears of relief as you realize that you are not alone and you do have the power to make healthy changes that benefit the whole family. Highly recommended during any stage of the parenting journey.

Katie Hurley, LCSW, author of No More Mean Girls and The Happy Kid Handbook

Funny, honest and real, this is the book I needed when my kids were toddlers – and middle graders – and yesterday afternoon. Naumburg reminds me that I have to deal with my own shit to have a fighting chance at helping my kids deal with theirs and she doesn’t shy away from hard truths and challenges about the process, or skimp on practical ideas for getting there. I’m going to need multiple copies of this one – one for me, and one for pretty much everyone else I know.

KJ Dell'Antonia, author of How to Be a Happier Parent: Raising a Family, Having a Life and Loving (Almost) Every Minute

Makes you feel hugged rather than judged. By the end not only are you laughing your ass off, but you’ve gained a sense of self-compassion and a concrete action plan. Part self-help manual, part funny textbook (complete with helpful metaphors and saucy acronyms) and part poignant memoir, How to Stop Losing Your Sh*t with Your Kids is a must-read for any parent!

Rebecca Schrag Hershberg, PhD, author of ?The Tantrum Survival Guide
