    Good content but I wish the authors hadn't recorded their own voices. The adults imitating children's dialogue is excrutiating. I'm not sure if I'll even be able to finish listening to the book.

    While there are some helpful tips, some ideas are just ridiculous. Philosophy and attitudes like hers are probably responsibly for the entitled self-centered brats we see these days.
