It is also intermittently the cause of some of our deepest sorrows. It is likely that we will spend at least some of the time in despair and confusion, wondering whether it really has to be so hard. <p>Philosophy has, over the last 2,000 years, been a discipline committed to calm, kindness, perspective and a reduction of paranoia. It is one of the most useful sources of solace and humanity.<i> The Joys and Sorrows of Parenting</i> is made up of 26 small essays that aim to shed understanding and give consolation on the trials and pleasures of parenting. They will provoke insight, recognition and a far more forgiving, generous assessment of the challenges of parenthood. <p><i>The Joys and Sorrows of Parenting</i> promises us a gentle way of staying calm around one of the most arduous yet deeply fulfilling jobs in the world.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>***What readers are saying***</b> <p>This is a very wise and deeply compassionate book which all parents will appreciate, especially parents of small children, during a pandemic. I came across this when I was needing some support, and this book did it for me. Can't say enough good things about it.</p> <p>These little essays are short and sweet and cut to the chase. Honest and raw, they speak straight to the heart of what it feels like to parent. Loved it.</p> <p>One that I'll come back to time and again as I need a lift. Very kind and sensible reminders for parents, who are doing their best.</p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>The School of Life is a global organization helping people lead more fulfilled lives.
