Parenting

Notes

• One of the most striking things you learn from having kids is how much you took your parents for granted.
• Бить по попе и любые другие виды насилия над детьми - не ОК.
• Parenting practices seem to have little or no impact on children's personalities, contrary to some of the best-known theories in psychology.
• It's nice to sometimes print physical books of stories your child tells you.
• Teach your kids to get comfortable changing their mind in the face of compelling reasoning. It’s a rare superpower.
