Are modern parents obsessed with raising perfect children? Are they missing the bigger picture? Based on the deepest and broadest survey of its kind, Do Parents Matter? investigates global parenting styles and comes away with profound lessons for the way that we think about our families.

Combining decades of observation, and a variety of cultural traditions, anthropologists (and grandparents) Robert and Sarah Levine reveal the almost-infinite paths children can take to a healthy adulthood. There is no one-size-fits-all approach to parenting, free yourself from expert advice and learn to relax.
