Sobre IBD

Love in the Time of Contempt is a gritty, hilarious look at the day-to-day interactions with teenagers and the tussled, frazzled and complex business of remaining mature while supporting someone to become an adult. Fedler shares her philosophy that we are meant to parent imperfectly - our mistakes are the start of the important conversations we need to have with our kids. She guides us through enduring intermittent bouts of contempt, while not taking it personally, picking the fights that are worth having, and surviving the journey from frustration, to confusion, to elation and back again.Love in the Time of Contempt is a funny, poignant account of the dramas and delights of parenting people who know it all, who don’t yet have a fully functioning brain and who desperately need us to parent them - just not in the way we’re used to. 3
