«How Not to F*** Them Up» is Oliver James's parenting essay, published by Vermilion in hardcover (384 pages, in English).
Oliver James argues that it is not children who need training, but parents. He identifies three mothering styles ('Hugger', 'Organiser' and 'Fleximum') and addresses social support, the father's role and work-life balance. He proposes reviewing one's own beliefs and childhood to provide a stable, happy environment.
On the cover, Oliver James is listed as author of the bestsellers 'Affluenza' and 'They F*** You Up'; in commercial records it is also cited as 'How Not to F*** Them Up: The First Three Years'.
It will appeal to parents of babies and young children, and to readers of child psychology and work-life balance.
James Oliver Curwood was an American action-adventure writer and conservationist. His books were often based on adventures set in the Hudson Bay area, the Yukon or Alaska and ranked among the top-ten best sellers in the United States in the early and mid 1920s, according to Publishers Weekly. At least one hundred and eighty motion pictures have been based on or directly inspired by his novels and short stories; one was produced in three versions from 1919 to 1953. At the time of his death, Curwood was the highest paid author in the world.
