Beskrivning
An interactive gift book adventure to combat mom guilt from therapist Rebecca Fox Starr. Which path will you choose?Motherhood is a constant barrage of choices. Bottle or breast? Alone time or playtime? And how much is too much screentime? No matter the choice we make, mothers often end up feeling guilty, as if we are never doing enough. But no more! In the style of a decision-making game, therapist Rebecca Fox Starr guides moms through the apocalyptic newborn phase, the jungle of toddlerhood, and the dead ends and booby traps of raising teens with one simple message: You are doing a great job. You are more than enough. Every page leads to a new choice, and every choice you make creates a personalized journey where healing tools and practical advice are your companions. Which path will you choose? The perfect gift for mothers who are doing their best every day, Am I Doing This Right? is the comforting affirmation we need to show ourselves some compassion and appreciate the choices we make each day for the families we love.

Recensioner i media

"Kids curl up with 'choose your own adventure' novels and, every few pages, pick whether they want to, say, run away or chat with a ghost. In this banish-the-mom-guilt guide, Starr, a clinical therapist and a licensed clinical social worker, provides nonfiction choices. After her introduction, which notes how she uses elements of cognitive behavior therapy (which identifies and challenges negative thoughts) and dialectical behavioral therapy (which emphasizes regulating emotions and being mindful), she declares, 'Let the adventure begin!' The text urges parents to turn to page 12 and others to turn to page 134. Playful mothers may embrace exercises like a fill-in-the-blank songwriting activity, 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Mom.' Parents struggling with setting boundaries may appreciate choose-your-own-adventure scenarios about whether to invite a family friend to visit. Others may find it comforting to learn how to recover from mistakes like yelling. Starr says, apologize: 'I am feeling overwhelmed, and this is how it came out.' Parents should benefit from this short-and-sweet reminder about how to show 'grace' and 'compassion' toward themselves and others."
