Praise

“Rarely do parenting books trigger in me an exhale. But the title alone for Heather Shumaker’s new book came like that rare August breeze.”
The Washington Post “On Parenting”

“An insightful, sensible and compassionate book full of downright revolutionary ideas.”
–Salon.com

“Did you read the title and think, what the heck? Me, too. Not only did I read it to figure out the title, I underlined about a third–it’s that good.”
–Melissa Taylor, ImaginationSoup.net


“What an amazing book! [Shumaker] challenge[s] the parenting myths and fallacies that our society has embraced for so long.”
–Provider Resource Organization


“A breath of fresh air.”
–Jane Pratt, founder of xoJane.com


“These ‘renegade rules’ will resonate with what you know to be true, speak to what you want most for your children, and teach you how to achieve it. Don’t let this one slip off your reading list.”

“From ‘Bombs, Guns, and Bad Guys Allowed’ to ‘”I Hate You!” Is Nothing Personal,’ the table of contents alone is music to my ears. Heather Shumaker is a healthy mom I can relate to–and I’ll bet you will too, when you hear out her logic.”
–Paula Spencer Scott, author of Momfidence!


“A refreshing change from the usual admonitions. . . Shumaker’s Renegade Rules are based on what children really need.”
