I had already started noticing that my anger was really just my own frustration—mostly from expecting my kid to react or behave how I would. This book helped me go even deeper with that. Once I took time to understand how my child actually communicates and thinks (ADHD and all), I started calming down way more. The tools in here are super practical, and they don’t make you feel like a bad parent. It helped me shift the whole vibe at home without needing to be perfect.

After finishing this audiobook, I was reminded of the phrase, "If it's good for the goose, it's good for the gander." Many strategies for parents to identify triggers are also great for kids! I never thought about people embodying or overcompensating parenting styles between generations, depending on how parents were raised as kids. Thank goodness some of the tips break the cycle. This is an excellent resource I will go back and use.
