This is a unique parenting book that I learned a lot from. It gave me a new mental model through which to view the abilities of children, and all people in general. Everyone is smart in different ways. This book does a good job of explaining this in a way that is easy to understand and apply to relationships. I highly recommend 8 Great Smarts for all parents.

Boys Should Be Boys by Meg Meeker Summary
This is an encouraging book about parenting. It has a lot of sound advice and is worth reading multiple times. My wife and I got to hear Dr. Meg Meeker speak in person at a Dave Ramsey SMART conference in 2019 and we've learned a lot from her. If you enjoy this, you may want to check out some of her other books on parenting.

The Gift of Failure Book Summary
Read because of a recommendation from Ryan Holiday. Interesting perspectives on parenting, teaching children autonomy and learning to embrace failure instead of fearing it.
