Product Details
Overview
For all new parents who get overwhelmed, regularly pushed to their limits and confused by contradictory feelings of elation and near-despair.
This collection draws on Alicia Jo Rabins' years of experience as a writer, Bible scholar, and feminist Jewish educator, and is based on her popular series of articles on parenting for Kveller.
Humorous, self-reflective, and comforting, Rabins shares both heartening and cringe-worthy biblical examples of parenting. Ancient Jewish wisdom helps caregivers see beyond the detritus of day-to-day living with young children and recapture a sense of wonder at the process of raising small humans.
The supportive and inspirational writings of this gentle book can help any soul embarked upon the wild, sacred work of parenting recognize the wisdom of poet Norman Fischer’s advice that "the only transcendence is fully embracing the ups and downs.”
"A deeply relatable, comforting guide for anyone who ever feels overwhelmed by parenthood . . . does not shy away from matters like the author's postpartum depression, loneliness, and financial strain. This authenticity sets Even God Had Bad Parenting Days apart from other parenting books."—Leah Grisham, The Jewish Book Council
"Heartfelt, funny, and poignant" —The Jewish Review
"A multidimensional work of meditation and love" —Mikhal Wiener, Lilith
