I often get asked for books to read while trying to conceive (TTC) or pregnant. Most people these days want:

• to read just a few books

• that are interesting

• and give you some facts

• but maybe not too many…

• …and don’t scare the heck out of you

  The following books are PRIYApproved!

No doubt, you’ve heard the terms “helicopter parenting” or “over parenting” in the media recently.

We are seeing more and more information that points to the fact that being over involved in a child’s daily life skills, social interactions and school relationships can be detrimental down the line. If one does not learn to manage situations independently from early on, it’s not fair to suddenly expect these skills to develop over night when a child is a teenager or college aged.
