Hunt, Gather, Parent: What Ancient Cultures Can Teach Us About the Lost Art of Raising Happy, Helpful Little Humans, by Michaleen Doucleff
What Maya, Intuit, and Hadzabe families know about raising kids that we don’t.
This is the story of American mom, Michaeleen Doucleff, who brings her 3-year-old, Rosy, alone with her as she learns about parenting with families from three ancient, indigenous populations – the Maya in Yucatan, the Intuit in the Arctic Circle, and the Hadzabe in Tanzania, who have been raising their kids the same way since the dawn of time. The book reveals how Maya parents raise cooperative children without resorting to bribes, threats, or chore charts, how Intuit parents raise calm, gentle children who think before they act, and how Hadzabe parents raise confident, self-driven kids with a simple tool that protects them from stress and anxiety. This book helps us rethink the way we relate to our kids and reveals other parenting paradigms we can consider adapting.
