Good Enough

Parent and psychologist Dr Tara Porter is on a mission to empower parents to believe that they're good enough to raise children who believe that they're good enough, too.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Forget scrolling through the latest parenting websites and getting sucked in by the latest fads on Instagram – using an engaging mix of expertise and experience, this book will help you understand what it means to be a 'good enough' parent to your children from babyhood to adulthood. In return, you'll help instil that feeling of being 'good enough' in your child – a mindset that will give them the best chance of navigating the ups and downs of modern life.

As a mother of three and practising psychologist with over 25 years of clinical experience, Tara Porter is intent on reducing the pressure of modern parenting advice for both parents and children. We all beat ourselves up with ideas of perfection, but what if 'good enough' parenting is actually enough?

Whether your child is taking their first steps or about to fly the nest, Tara will show you how to find your 'good enough', an approach that allows parents to define their own role, avoid parental guilt, and espouse an approach of balanced, boundaried emotional support, whilst retaining their sense of sanity and self as they do so.
