Taming the Tiger Parent

I’ve hardly been able to put the book down … as I turned each page I’d find something else that resonated with me… Tanith has the ability to challenge your thinking without it being judgmental or preachy. She shares lots of real life case studies and draws on her own experience as a parent and combines this with solid research to make a really readable book. - mummyfromtheheart.com

Praise for Where has My Little Girl Gone?

Well-researched and sensitively written, this is both an important book - and a very useful tool for parents.

Praise for Where Has My Little Girl Gone?

Tanith Carey swims against the tide in this brilliant “how to” book. She is not a lone voice - it’s time we as parents stood up to the esteem-robbing barrage our daughters face. As a parent of three daughters I encourage all Mum’s AND Dads to read this book.

Praise for Where has My Little Girl Gone? An invaluable roadmap that will guide parents through the maze of modern-day adolescence, helping parents to bring out the best in their daughters. Full of practical and effective strategies read it and share it!

The book is GREAT … in a great tradition along with Madeleine Bunting’s Willing Slaves, and Sue Gerhardt’s The Selfish Society, and of course Kim Payne’s Simplicity Parenting, as critiques of society that also help us re-orient our parenting … beautifully lucid and readable, and … definitely on the right track in terms of what kids need.

Tanith Carey is an award-winning national newspaper journalist and writer on parenting and society for the Guardian, The Independent, and the Daily Mail, among many other newspapers and magazines.

She is also the author of six books, three on parenting. Her previous book, Where Has My Little Girl Gone? How to protect your daughter from growing up too soon, published in May 2011, was the first hands-on guide for parents on how to handle the challenges of early sexualisation. It received widespread media coverage, including a three-day serialization in the Daily Mail, the cover of Guardian Family, and a spread and opinion pieces in the Independent and Independent on Sunday.
