Un pregiudizio è un errore che si ripete all'infinito, e i ragazzi ne sono le vittime preferite. La psicologia, spesso inconsapevolmente, si è resa complice di questa deriva, contribuendo al loro inscatolamento all'interno di categorie remote, create quando si andava ancora con la carrozza a cavalli e la speranza di vita non superava i cinquant'anni. Basterebbero queste affermazioni per renderci prudenti sulla pretesa di risolvere tutto con un libro: il rischio di rimanere delusi è dietro l'angolo, perché troppi cancelli, pesanti, si sono chiusi nel frattempo intorno ai ragazzi.

With the birth of her first child, Laura Jean Baker found herself electrified by oxytocin, the "love drug" - the first effective antidote to her lifelong depression. Again and again over the next eight years, Baker finds herself craving the intense highs of childbearing - cravings that, she realizes, align her much more closely with her public defender husband's desperate, drug-addled clients than with their middle-class peers. As Ryan's roster of defendants increases, so too does their family - nearly to the point of collapse.

Diagnosed as severely autistic at the age of three, Tito, nearly nonverbal, was brought up by his loving mother Soma, who taught him to read English and challenged him to write his own stories. The initial result was The Mind Tree, published in 2003, which Tito wrote between the ages of eight and 11. The Gold of the Sunbeams is an equally impressive, beautiful collection of stories, each prefaced by a charming note from Tito explaining how the story came into being.

There is no denying it: motherhood splits a woman's life forever, into a before and an after. To this doubled life Lisa Catherine Harper brings a wealth of feeling and a wry sense of humor, a will to understand the emotional and biological transformations that motherhood entails, and a narrative gift that any listener will enjoy. Harper documents her own journey across this great divide as a seasoned explorer might, observing, researching, relating anecdotes and critical information.

At 32 years old, the recently married author found herself suddenly surrounded by babies, and the expectation of family and friends that she would soon have one herself. Altman’s ambivalence prompted a search for the meaning of motherhood - one that led her to wear a fake pregnancy belly, attend pre-natal yoga classes, debate experts, and even tend to her very own crying plastic baby. Her reporting led to a surprising and uplifting lesson about life, love and the choices we make.

Following on the heels of his successful book on grandfatherhood (Grandpa Rules), veteran comedy writer Michael Milligan set his sights on the joys and stresses of fatherhood. A response to all those dad books full of empty platitudes and hokey lessons, Dad Rules is a book for the hip dad who can use a laugh (if not a drink) at the end of another trying day with his kids. A perfect gift for the dads in your life, this book is laugh-out-loud funny and offers useful insights and tips on how to embrace the world's greatest job.

Acclaimed author Lauren Slater ruminates on what it means to be family. Lauren Slater's rocky childhood left her cold to the idea of ever creating a family of her own, but a husband, two dogs, two children, and three houses later, she came around to the challenges, trials, and unexpected rewards of playing house. In these autobiographical pieces, Slater presents snapshots of domestic life, populating them with the gritty details and jarring realities of sharing home, life, and body in the curious institution called "family."

Lina was a precocious toddler - charming, chatty, joyful. At the age of three, in the aftermath of her second MMR vaccine, first came a seizure, and then, to her parents’ horror, the loss of Lina’s ability to play, use language, and control her impulses. Over the next few years they continued to lose Lina. She communicated her acute discomfort by biting, screaming, hitting, laughing maniacally, and throwing violent tantrums.

For many women in their 20s and 30s, the greatest professional hurdle they'll need to overcome has little to do with their work life. The most focused, confident, and ambitious women can find themselves derailed by a tiny little thing: a new baby. While more workplaces are espousing family-friendly cultures, women are still subject to a "parenting penalty", and high-profile conflicts between parenting and the workplace are all over the news, from the controversy over companies covering the costs of egg freezing to the debate over parental leave and child care inspired by Mark Zuckerberg's two-month paternity leave.

Susie Bright is one of America's most vocal sex-positive advocates. This collection of 22 sketches written during the first 12 years of her daughter's life covers a variety of topics: her daughter's questions at school when she's asked to describe what her mom does for a "job", how nudists age, the strange future of porn, the ruin of most sex advice, real life non-monogamy stories - and even a recipe for cherry pie.

Ser madre es un vuelco al corazón que pone tu mundo cabeza abajo. Mirar a tu bebé a los ojos por primera vez reorganiza tus prioridades, da forma a tu vida; te lleva a prometerte que harás cuanto esté en tu mano por esa criatura. Pero traer un niño al mundo no implica solo la responsabilidad de cuidarlo y protegerlo; también la de soltarle, cuando llega el momento, y dejar que camine solo, que escoja los senderos que le pida su alma, que vuele libre de cargas sabiendo que nuestra tarea está completa.

La llegada de los hijos cambia por completo nuestras vidas, tanto en pareja como a nivel individual. Y no siempre (o al menos, no todo el tiempo) el hijo representa a la perfección el sueño que teníamos en mente. Mi hijo me cae mal nos ofrece respuestas y consuelo desde la psicología a todas esas conductas ante las que no sabemos reaccionar, o ante las que reaccionamos mal, y nos invita a explorarnos a nosotros mismos para evaluar la relación que mantenemos con nuestros hijos en las diferentes etapas de su desarrollo.

Poco più di dieci anni fa, quando uscì per la prima volta, questo libro – cui seguì anche un blog, tuttora attivo – divenne subito un piccolo culto, amatissimo dai futuri genitori. Il racconto sincero di una mamma alle prese con miti da smantellare e riti da seguire, mese per mese, dal "D-Day"(il giorno delle doglie!) e per tutto il primo anno di vita del bambino, è uno slalom tra errori, fatiche, scoperte e gratificazioni – a volte mescolati tutti assieme – nel tentativo di "trovare una quadra" e ricomporre l'immagine di sé andata in frantumi con il parto.

「親のために努力し続けて、しんどい――そんな自分に気づき、涙が止まりません」「共感できることがありすぎて、すべてのページにマーカーを引きたい」
