review 1: I'm not even a parent and I wanted to read this because I knew it would make me laugh. I think the basic take away is that the French take less shit than American parents and that seems to be a working method.

review 2: When I decide to have children, I will absolutely re-read this book. As an American living in France, I have noticed this enormous difference in parenting/behavior and intend on going the French route. The author (informally) explains the differences based off of her experiences and research from French friends. She offers advice to American parents w... moreho have been sucked into the strange American parenting world, which she has been sucked into herself. Love it, will read again. less
