Awful Behavior: A Field Journal for Parents
Most baby books are designed to capture the most sweet and charming milestones of a child's early years -- first laugh, first tooth, first steps...This journal is not for that. Awful Behavior: A Field Journal for Parents is for realist parents who want to keep track of the stuff that makes for really good stories. It includes space to document a dozen awful behaviors commonly displayed by little ones plus plenty of blank pages to capture baby's unique awfulness.
If you or someone you know is facing the reality of all that's involved with raising a human, this book can help. Well, maybe not help, but it is a good reminder that parenting is supposed to be hard and no one is ever perfect at it.
About This Journal
Kids are great. They're cute and sweet and sometimes even interesting. They're also loud, needy, and super picky eaters. Parents are great, too. Amazing, really. Resilient. And tired. Best of all, parents are good storytellers. Not the "my baby's poop smells like gardenias" kind of stories. The best stories are about the crazy, disgusting, inappropriate, embarrassing, weird things kids do. As a parent, you need to remember that stuff so you can enjoy a good laugh, feel a tremendous sense of accomplishment, and celebrate your survival. Also, it won't hurt to have a written record to hold over your progeny later in life.
Use this journal to keep track of the awful behavior you experience as a parent. Be real, be proud.
