About the Original Book:

Many Western parents would not imagine not praising, rewarding or punishing their children, not buying them toys, or leaving them to sleep on their own schedules. Yet this is the norm in many indigenous communities around the world, and the children raised this way turn out to be more helpful and self-assured than their Western counterparts.

Drawing from science, her experiences as a mother, and her observations living within indigenous communities in Mexico, Tanzania, and the Arctic, Michaeleen Doucleff explains how parents can get their children to do chores voluntarily, behave appropriately, and grow into kind and self-sufficient people. Any parent who feels exhausted or defeated by all the work and yelling they have to do at home will find Hunt, Gather, Parent a handy guide to reclaiming their life.
