About the book
Are you the parent who prepares a pile of clothes so that your child has the right clothes to school? Are you extra dad who will do anything to be accepted by the new wife's kids? Do you your children’s lunch bag in order to look good in to the teachers? Do you rushed to day care to pick up early even though your kid really wants to stay on and play? Or are you a parent of a teenager who find it difficult to set boundaries in fear of a conflict?

What do we pass on to our children by communicating that everything has to be perfect? When we never say no, when we rarely sit down for more than one quarter at a time?
