Cribsheet
Cribsheet
A Data-Driven Guide to Better, More Relaxed Parenting, from Birth to Preschool
By Emily Oster
Unit price / per
'Emily Oster is the non-judgemental girlfriend holding our hand and guiding us through pregnancy and motherhood. She has done the work to get us the hard facts in a soft, understandable way.' - Amy Schumer
Parenting is full of decisions, nearly all of which can be agonized over. There is an abundance of often-conflicting advice hurled at you from doctors, family, friends, and strangers on the internet. But the benefits of these choices can be overstated, and the trade-offs can be profound. How do you make your own best decision?
Armed with the data, Oster finds that the conventional wisdom doesn't always hold up. She debunks myths and offers non-judgemental ways to consider our options in light of the facts.
She also shows parents how to think through freighted questions like if and how to go back to work, how to think about toddler discipline, and how to have a relationship and parent at the same time.
Cribsheet is a thinking parent's guide that empowers us to make better, less fraught decisions - and stay sane in the years before preschool.
'A huge relief from the scare stories ... Cribsheet is not another call for the end of helicopter parenting or snowplow parenting or whatever kind of parenting is lighting up social media today, and it's not a call to overthrow medical wisdom; it's a call for parenting with context, and it's freeing.' - Washington Post
'Both refreshing and useful. With so many parenting theories driving us all a bit batty, this is the type of book that we need to help calm things down.' - LA Times
'Shows that in the hectic haze of parenthood an economist's perspective can prove surprisingly clarifying.' - Economist
'The Guilt-Free, Data-Driven Guide to Parenting ... Smart, relatable, and funny.' - Bloomberg
