The wonderfully crazy life with kids
Life with kids is exhausting, great, enough to make you weep, laugh, lose it, cheer and go crazy – usually all at the same time. Jonas Ratz reports about it in the column “Elterncouch” (“Parents’ Couch”) on Spiegel Online – and many parents shudder in recognition.
Very important: Ratz doesn’t offer a single tip in his book. Because you can hardly escape all the tips, rules and good advice that come your way once you have kids. Besides: parenting is what happens while we’re busy failing at being role models. The chapters are just long enough that you can fit them in perfectly before going to bed – because two pages is about as much as you can manage when you’re wiped out from putting your kids to bed.
