«Under Pressure» is the parenting essay by Carl Honoré, published by Orion in paperback (304 pages, in English).
The essay analyzes hyper-parenting: the pressure that fills childhood with extracurricular activities and academic demands. Carl Honoré interviews specialists, teachers and families from several countries and proposes slowing down parenting, with more free play and trust in instincts, to raise happier children and calmer parents.
«Under Pressure» was originally published in 2008 and was nominated for the Hilary Weston Writers' Trust Prize for Nonfiction.
For parents, educators and childhood professionals interested in rethinking parenting rhythms and the balance between activities and free time.
Carl Honoré is a Canadian journalist who wrote the internationally best-selling book In Praise of Slow (2004) about the Slow Movement.
