Lessons from a Default Parent: Surviving the Front Line of Family Life (Without Losing Your Sh*t)

From assumptions surrounding who is staying home with the kids to the never-ending list of ‘school’ admin, being ‘the default parent’ rears its head in a plethora of ways.

So this book is for all the defaults out there – bored out of their eyeballs or so overwhelmed they could scream expletives into the wind for a solid hour – to know their invisible labor is seen, valued and can even sometimes be rebalanced.

With heartfelt and hilarious advice, Lou Beckett provides much-needed comfort and community for the one who is depended on the most (and often feels appreciated the least), and maybe – just maybe – how we can begin to muddle through a little better, together.
