Description:
In the Midst of Parenting offers a grounded and compassionate exploration of parenting as an evolving human relationship rather than a set of techniques. Drawing on real-life experience and psychological insight, Carol Smaldino examines the emotional realities parents face—identity, responsibility, boundaries, frustration, and connection—while navigating the daily complexities of raising children. The book emphasizes attentiveness, dignity, and self-awareness, presenting parenting as a dynamic process shaped by growth on both sides of the relationship. Thoughtful and reflective, it approaches family life as an arena for ongoing learning rather than perfection.
