ABOUT BADASS PARENTING & HEROIC PARENTING
"Badass Parenting is like a triple-dark chocolate cheesecake, with a layer of mousse in the middle (hint: the mousse is CJ Scarlet’s humor and style - which helps lighten up the cheesecake!). You will love this book!” Karen Christie, Mom & Grandma
Do you love your child and loathe bad people who want to harm her? Then Badass Parenting or Heroic Parenting (if you're uncomfortable with profanity) are for you!
If you’ve ever lost sleep worrying about your child’s safety, you’re not alone. You may want to wrap your munchkin in a protective bubble and defend her from every harm but doing so could emotionally cripple her and make her more, not less, vulnerable to predators.
In Badass Parenting and Heroic Parenting, danger expert CJ Scarlet helps you teach your child how to handle herself in scary situations, ranging from bullying and digital dangers to sexual abuse and kidnapping.
After reading either book, you’ll feel more knowledgeable and confident in your ability to talk candidly with your child at her age and maturity level without scaring her to death. It’s time to ditch the worry and get some sleep!
Edgy, funny, and super informative, this unputdownable book (with TONS of downloadable bonus content!) is the new bible for parents looking to raise safe, savvy, confident kids.
WARNING!!! Badass Parenting contains extreme snark and a good bit of swearing. If you’re clutching your pearls just reading this, then this book is not for you. Instead, consider reading Heroic Parenting—it’s the same book without all the unnecessary swearing. Know that while the profanity is redacted, the wisdom is not! However, if you want to be entertained while you learn how to protect your child, Badass Parenting is a must-read!
