Über diesen Titel

 The secret behind France's astonishingly well-behaved children.

When American journalist Pamela Druckerman has a baby in Paris, she doesn't aspire to become a "French parent." French parenting isn't a known thing, like French fashion or French cheese. Even French parents themselves insist they aren't doing anything special.

Yet, the French children Druckerman knows sleep through the night at two or three months old while those of her American friends take a year or more. French kids eat well-rounded meals that are more likely to include braised leeks than chicken nuggets. And while her American friends spend their visits resolving spats between their kids, her French friends sip coffee while the kids play.

Motherhood itself is a whole different experience in France. There's no role model, as there is in America, for the harried new mom with no life of her own. French mothers assume that even good parents aren't at the constant service of their children and that there's no need to feel guilty about this. They have an easy, calm authority with their kids that Druckerman can only envy.

Of course, French parenting wouldn't be worth talking about if it produced robotic, joyless children. In fact, French kids are just as boisterous, curious, and creative as Americans. They're just far better behaved and more in command of themselves. While some American toddlers are getting Mandarin tutors and preliteracy training, French kids are- by design-toddling around and discovering the world at their own pace.

With a notebook stashed in her diaper bag, Druckerman-a former reporter for The Wall Street Journal-sets out to learn the secrets to raising a society of good little sleepers, gourmet eaters, and reasonably relaxed parents. She discovers that French parents are extremely strict about some things and strikingly permissive about others. And she realizes that to be a different kind of parent, you don't just need a different parenting philosophy. You need a very different view of what a child actually is.

While finding her own firm non, Druckerman discovers that children-including her own-are capable of feats she'd never imagined. Beziehungen Elternschaft & Familienleben Säuglinge & Kleinkinder

Kritikerstimmen

“Marvelous . . . Like Julia Child, who translated the secrets of French cuisine, Druckerman has investigated and distilled the essentials of French child-rearing. . . . Druckerman provides fascinating details about French sleep training, feeding schedules and family rituals. But her book's real pleasures spring from her funny, self-deprecating stories. Like the principles she examines, Druckerman isn't doctrinaire.” —NPR

“Bringing Up Bébé is a must-read for parents who would like their children to eat more than white pasta and chicken fingers.” —Fox News

“On questions of how to live, the French never disappoint . . . Maybe it all starts with childhood. That is the conclusion that readers may draw from Bringing Up Bébé.” —The Wall Street Journal

“French women don't have little bags of emergency Cheerios spilling all over their Louis Vuitton handbags. They also, Druckerman notes, wear skinny jeans instead of sweatpants. The world arguably needs more kids who don't throw food.” —Chicago Tribune

“I’ve been a parent now for more than eight years, and—confession—I’ve never actually made it all the way through a parenting book. But I found Bringing Up Bébé to be irresistible.” —Slate

Interesting insights into more than just dealing with kids. Especially the part where the author describes how french manage ther adult relationship after kids are born, is very interesting.

Reminder of what makes the whole family happy

The information shared in this book is eye opening and incredibly helpful for those parents who are looking for a less stressed life.

Interesting insights

I love the book itself. Great insights and very easy to follow. But I don’t understand the point of the fake French accent in the audio version. It was totally unnecessary and annoying. It ruined my experience personally.

Fake accent ruins it

I think the content is great and very interesting. However, if your mother tongue is french, you will be irritated by the weird fake exagerated 'french accent' she often uses, it sounds more like a russian talking english... it really got on my nerves. The rest is great. I was curious about that book, since i talked to some french friends, who dont seemd to know that their way of raising kids is admired by some americain.

Listened to to this in almost one go - had a lot of "ahhhh" moments and am excited to try those techniques. Finally a guide that does not give you the impression that you are a bad parent as soon as your entire universe does not evolve around your kids or that you have to give in on every little thing your kid wants.

Only 4 stars for the speaker though .. the fake French accent when citing french people became unnerving after a short while.

Refreshing and reassuring

Abby Craden does an amazing job over all, but her accent when reading the (numerous) french expressions and phrases is frankly atrocious. That may be by choice to illustrate the author‘s bad French when she was first living in France - but it‘s just terrible to listen to if you happen to speak French half-decently.

Hilarious and instructive!

This book is simply the view of an American raising a child in France. The author celebrates the French way without looking at this objectively, she doesn't add any research and this is therefore just an opinion piece, don't take it seriously. Also, I absolutely hated the way the narrator read all quotes from French people in a horrible accent.

Just an opinion piece, no research

As a new mom looking for ways to raise my kid, I found this book somewhat interesting, and am now looking forward to read about Françoise Dolto.
The fake french accent is really annoying, though.

Somewhat interesting

The fake French accent when quoting French people really annoyed me to the point where I don’t want to keep listening to the book anymore. It is unnecessary, completely over the top and overally distracts from the actual contents of the book.

Horrible, unnecessary fake French accent
