Reviews

“Under Pressure is a Godsend! Full of common sense advice...” - Christiane Northrup, M.D., author of The Wisdom of Menopause

“Honoré presents a list of ways in which parents all over the developed world have long been robbing their children of their childhoods by inserting themselves into every facet of their children’s lives. . . . Joining a crowded field of child-rearing books, this is an excellent choice.” - Library Journal

“...an important new look at the evolution of child rearing among the global middle class. Honore’s final words to parents are comforting: Trust your instincts and let your children be children. There’s time enough for all that achievement later.” - Oregonian

“...a must-read book for parents, educators and all concerned with the health and well-being of America’s children.” - Madeline Levine, Ph.D., author of The Price of Privilege
