Idle Parent Reviews
11 March 2009
There was a very nice review of The Idle Parent in the Sunday Times of 8th March. Matt Rudd described the book as “the most easy-to-follow-without-being-made-to-feel-inadequate parenting manifesto ever written… he is right on almost everything…. a godsend to parents.” And in London Lite, Victoria Segal wrote: “This is an inspiring book, refreshingly unsentimental and, in its rejection of parenting and childhood as states to be commodified by the consumer society, genuinely subversive.”
The book can be bought direct from us by clicking on the right.

"All my peers and contemporaries, their work ethic is utterly dictated by materialism: the amount of compromise they will make. IÕve seen them all, from the beginning. I was famous before all of them. I see them now, and I swear to you, they are the living dead. Their work is dead. They have no sparkle about their lives, about themselves. TheyÕre just treading water Ð theyÕre not even treading water, theyÕre treading fucking syrup. Bad syrup."
