You've got the basics down. Now go deeper.
The first parenting book gave you the foundation—presence, validation, consistency, autonomy, and self-care. This book tackles what comes next.
Because parenting keeps presenting new puzzles.
It could be the disconnect you feel with your teenager. You used to know everything about their life. Now you know nothing. Maybe it's the guilt from last week's blowup—you lost your temper and saw the hurt on their face. Perhaps it's the nagging sense that you no longer really know your child.
This book addresses the nuances.
THE 5 DEEPER PRACTICES:

• The Repair Practice — How to apologize, reconnect, and heal after ruptures. Because you will mess up, and what happens following matters more than the mess-up itself.
• The Curiosity Approach — Staying genuinely curious about who your child actually is—not whom you expected, not whom you wanted, but whom they're becoming.
• The Praise Pivot — Shifting from generic praise ("You're so smart!") to specific, process-focused praise that builds genuine confidence instead of a fragile ego.
• The Communication Bridge — Creating honest conversations that go beyond "How was school?" "Fine." Especially as they get older.
• The Ritual Anchor — Building meaningful family traditions that create connection, security, and memories that last.

Each practice includes:

• The research behind why it works
• Step-by-step implementation
• Common mistakes to avoid
• Real-world examples with dialogue
• The science explained simply

Part of The Daily 5 Series—short, actionable books for busy people who want real results. Combined with Book 12, you'll have ten practices that cover most of what matters in parenting.
The relationship you build now is the relationship you'll have forever.
