It's Ok Not to Share and Other Renegade Rules for Raising Competent and Compassionate Kids

Unconventional wisdom for raising empathetic, independent kids.

As a parent, you might often second-guess your instincts on child-rearing, especially when surrounded by a sea of differing opinions. Heather Shumaker's "It's Ok Not to Share” provides a refreshing perspective that challenges conventional parenting norms. It's a great read if you're looking for reassurance in following your gut to raise self-reliant, caring children, paving the way for resilient adults. With her candid reflections and backed by expert voices, this book could be your parenting compass in the complex social situations your kids navigate.
