About the book

"Raising the Perfect Child Through Guilt and Manipulation" is a wickedly funny spoof on a parenting guide that bridges the gap between funny childhood essays and edgy self-help manual. As the title suggests, this isn't your standard parenting book. As a young mother and representative of Gen X parents who roll their eyes at earnestness, Beckwith's voice is hilarious, current, fresh, and ridiculous.
