“Its not selfish to fill your own cup, it’s essential”

“It’s not only about launching a book but creating momentum for a movement that focuses from the cradle on developing healthy social and emotional outcomes for children”

Make Mine a Mensch is the culmination of over 30 years of research and practice in both the field of education and parenting. The book was born out of an increasing realisation that parents and educators alike want real down-to-earth strategies and direction from people who have ‘been there, done that’ and not something based on idealism, politically correct theories or popular trends. Most importantly, you will find the book is written in a language straight from the heart

Fill your own cup

To be the best parent you can be, you need to fill your own cup. This book will show you how

Just read your book and I wanted to tell you it was excellent. It was written clearly written, easy to understand and digest. No jargon! Very sensible and hopefully doable for parents who struggle. More and more I see parents who are ruled by their children and scared of their children who rule the roost. Well done. Hope it has a good effect.
