A Next Big Ideas Club Must-Read Book
"Pressman has plenty of suggestions for making the experience of parenting more satisfying and enriching for both parents and kids — and for raising confident, independent children who know you have their back."—Katie Couric Media
"[5 Principles] lays out a clear, strong argument for co-regulation [with] tips and tricks abound for how a parent can self-regulate.” —New Yorker
"The book provides practical advice for getting through the toughest parts of parenting"—Emily Oster, author of Cribsheet
"Brimming with warmth and wisdom and free from fads and fear, this book belongs in the hands of everyone who cares for or about children." —Lisa Damour, PhD, author of Untangled, Under Pressure, and The Emotional Lives of Teenagers
“Imagine receiving practical wisdom based on cutting edge, solid science about how you can raise your kids to be thoughtful, emotionally balanced, compassionate and engaged citizens of the world. That’s what you have here in Aliza Pressman’s magnificent guide. This comprehensive, research informed book will be something to turn to again and again in the privilege and journey of being a parent. Enjoy!” — Daniel Siegel, MD New York Times bestselling co-author, Parenting from the Inside Out; The Whole Brain Child and The Power of Showing Up; Author, Brainstorm, Aware, and The Developing Mind
“Parenting is not one-size-fits-all. What Aliza does is come in and teach us how to individually handle how we raise children as well as ourselves. Her process is empowering and based not just on one person’s opinion. It seems impossible for one human to know so much research and yet her hard work has paid off for all of us. She lacks judgment and helps us all quiet the inner voices of doubt and gets us all into problem solution mode. I simply don’t know what I would do without her wisdom. She is my go-to for how we all, RAISE GOOD HUMANS, including ourselves!!” —Drew Barrymore
“Dr. Aliza Pressman’s excellent (and long anticipated) book, The Five Principles of Parenting, reflects her warmth, humor, depth of knowledge and no nonsense approach to raising good humans (see what I did there?). I finished this book feeling more competent, empowered, and calm—how often can you say that when thinking about parenting? I love this book!” —Jennifer Garner
"The 5 Principles of Parenting is a must-have for every parent. In a time where there is a lot of noise and advice about parenting and child development, Dr.Aliza Pressman is a rare find. She is at once a credible expert, practical, accessible, and beloved. Respected by colleagues and parents alike, her work is impactful and powerful, influencing how this generation of parents thinks about and cultivates their children’s development. I love this book!" —Tina Payne Bryson, LCSW, Ph.D., New York Times bestselling co-author of The Whole-Brain Child & No-Drama Discipline, and author of The Bottom Line for Baby
"The 5 Principles of Parenting is the one book parents can turn to for every stage of development. Dr. Aliza Pressman masterfully translates the science into the practical realities of being a parent and provides clear strategies every parent can use." —Lori Gottlieb, New York Times bestselling author of Maybe You Should Talk To Someone and co-host of the "Dear Therapists" podcast
“Dr. Aliza Pressman is in the thick of it when it comes to parenting... parenting is a topic that you could truly talk about forever.” —Emma Chamberlain, podcast host of Anything Goes
“A great deal of parenting advice is based on opinion instead of evidence. As a developmental psychologist, Aliza Pressman is on a mission to change that. In this book, she doesn’t just distill the lessons from the data—she makes them useful. It’s a practical guide to raising better humans.” —Adam Grant, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Hidden Potential and Think Again, and host of the podcast Re:Thinking
About the Author
Reviews:
5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant book
I am a big fan of Dr Aliza. I listen to her podcast regularly, and recently just finished the 5 principles of parenting. It is such a brilliant book- filled with research backed guidance to help you understand the why in her gentle parenting recommendations. What is particularly nice about this book- is there is no right or wrong way to parent. Dr Aliza provides you with the data from many different experts which helps you to understand children better. With questionnaires throughout the book, you are able to assess what type of child you have and what type of parent you are. She also encourages you to understand what sets off your “alarm system” so that you are more in touch with yourself -which ultimately helps you parent from a more emotionally regulated place. Dr Aliza is brilliant, thoughtful and truly a gifted educator. I had the privilege of speaking to her once and she is just a very special person. She is empathetic, attentive and eager to understand you and your kids. This is a MUST read. I truly can’t recommend it enough.
5.0 out of 5 stars A Parenting Guide Full of Wisdom and Practical Tools
This book is such a breath of fresh air for parents! Dr. Aliza Pressman breaks down parenting into 5 clear, practical principles that are easy to understand and apply in real life. Instead of overwhelming advice, she gives realistic tools that help you raise children with empathy, respect, and confidence.I especially appreciated how relatable her examples were it feels like having a trusted mentor walking alongside you through the ups and downs of parenting. Whether you’re a new parent or already deep in the journey, this book provides encouragement, perspective, and strategies that truly make a difference. A must-read for anyone who wants to raise good humans while also being kinder to themselves as a parent.
5.0 out of 5 stars Best Parenting Book
I learned about this book by listening to Dr. Aliza Pressman's podcast Rasing Good Humans.I have listen to the audio book (I'm listening it for the 2nd time now) and I ordered the hard copy also. I will go with my husband chapter by chapter to make sure we are on the same page and be great models for our children.I love that the tips are meeting the parents where they are and the book it is written in a non judgemental tone and based on current research.This would be a great gift for any parent.
5.0 out of 5 stars Must read for new parents
Really enjoyable and easy to digest and understand. Useful knowledge to help with parenting but also tools you can use for yourself to be better.
5.0 out of 5 stars Valuable parenting perspective
Get advice from a real expert. The book is a bit dense at times with acronyms and theories. The most efficient way to read it is to focus on the areas that will be the biggest benefit to your family. Practice these suggested parenting tools first and then review others at your own pace.
5.0 out of 5 stars A “must-have” for parents of all ages
I’ve been patiently waiting for the publication of Dr. Aliza’s book, and it did not disappoint. As a mother of three boys, I am constantly yearning for as much information I can gather on how to raise good humans. This book encompasses the main focus points on regulating ourselves, building relationships with our kids, learning to have fun, repairing ruptures - all while making us feel competent and confident in ourselves. Her podcast, Raising Good Humans, is also an incredible resource for parents! I have been following her for years, and I recommend her work to all of the parents I meet!
5.0 out of 5 stars Every Day Parenting Help
I absolutely love this book so far half way through, but its helpful in one's everyday parenting lifestyle. I highly recommend and recommend checking her articles on substack too.
5.0 out of 5 stars Borrowed this book from the library and had to get my own copy!
I've read a lot of great parenting books, but this is the first book that's simultaneously given me great actionable information while also easing this sense of overwhelm and mom guilt that's been plaguing me. I have so many highlighted sections I want to return to again and again as my toddler gets older, both to help me do right by him as well as to maintain my own wellbeing as a mom and person. Such a well written book, too! Thanks Dr. Aliza Pressman!
