I didn't get far into this book so I don't want to imply that there wouldn't be anything helpful in it, but I did find the way that the suggestions were presented to be odd and I wasn't super comfortable with how the author spoke about her daughter. In the small amount I read, there was a clear gender barrier of mothers teaching daughters, but no examination about how that affects the idea of parenting. I'm sure there's bits that are incredibly helpful and I have no doubt that this would be a helpful book for many, but I just couldn't bring myself to continue picking it up.
