Embrace the Scandinavian style of childrearing: practical, egalitarian, and free from outdated myths.
Expectant
parents will be relieved to hear: Put away the vacuum―dust does not
lead to allergy. Breastfeeding protects against allergies? Never has
done, never will do. Stop boiling bottles and pacifiers―sterilizing is
unnecessary in most industrial countries. Think you shouldn’t drink
alcohol when breastfeeding? Plain moralism.
Paediatrician Cecilia
Chrapkowska runs the country's most popular parenting blog and is a
specialist on vaccinations. Dr. Agnes Wold has been named Sweden’s Woman
of the Year for her tireless work in women’s health. Together they
present cutting-edge research from around the world which can guide you
to make better parenting choices. But unlike so many books, they focus
on the parent just as much as the child. Drawing on Sweden’s famously
generous parental leave and enlightened social policies, they
demonstrate the importance of equal parenting and provide practical
tools for parents everywhere to share responsibility equally.
From the progressive land in the North, this is the fact-based, feminist guide to parenting you have been waiting for.
