Your TV Has Been Hijacked: New Book Throws Down Some Toddler Truths…

I’ve not read anything by author Dawn Dais yet, but after an announcement about her latest book was slid into my inbox here at Rock Father HQ today, I figured I had to at least give it a mention. You see, when I looked at the chapter titles, I realized that this is a book I could’ve written – so Dawn must be legit when it comes to sage advice on parenting. THE SH!T NO ONE TELLS YOU ABOUT TODDLERS: A Guide to Surviving the Toddler Years is out September 8 via Seal Press – a sequel to her 2013 book about SH!T from newborns. Check out the chapters below, and see if anything strikes you as familiar…

Look at this...Chapters from the book:
  • You Are Living With a Terrorist. Do Not Make Any Sudden Movements
  • Your TV Has Been Hijacked. By Things With Very High Pitched Voices
  • You Suck At This. It’s Not Just Your Imagination
  • Remember When You Were A Respected Adult? Now You Go To Mommy and Me Classes
  • Playdates Are the Modern Day Arranged Marriage. Same Age? You’ll Love Playing Together!
  • Potty Training is the Sh!ts. And It’s Everywhere
  • Everything Is Temporary. You Will Survive This
  • This Childhood Will Be Televised. Hello Camera Phones
  • Let’s Lean Back, Not In. Who Has the Energy for So Much Ambition?

Pre-order Dawn’s new book via my associate, Amazon.
