I felt completely depressed when pregnant with my second son when I read this book! Mr Biddulph basically tells you that, as a mother, you are important to your sons till they reach five, then you can basically forget it, as you will always be of secondary importance to them compared to their fathers and you should just get on with doing their laundry and cooking them the odd meal or two!
I'm sure he is right to a certain degree but, after speaking to many people after reading this, it is a huge generalisation to say that most men worship their fathers and take their mothers for granted. Also, he could really have written one chapter instead of a whole book as the central message is repeated again and again: "Male children need strong ... Read More: >>More Details |

There are many good points in this book but the author is going completely wrong in his negative view of working mothers. Study after study has now clearly shown that children are happiest when the mother is happiest - whether working or at home. The uncomfortable truth is: Staying at home with a young child can be torture. Incredibly boring, irritating and stressful. And to top it off - you will be despised for being 'just a housewife' by the rest of society. Has Biddulph himself ever tried it for any length of time? I very much doubt it because otherwise his views might be a bit more compassionate - and better researched.

This book could be entitled "Blokes - an owner's manual." It's a really enlightening book for women too. I'm a mother and wife and found it really insightful and inspiring. A great book to read if you have sons.

So does anyone know if this book is worth buying if you already have "Secrets" and "More secrets of Happy Children"? Is it a rehash?
It seems to be focused on babies? My children are 2 and nearly 4. I love Steve's books so don't want to miss a trick! Write me a review someone please... >>More Details |
