She knows the terrain of family life and has discovered fresh paths through the thickets Reading this book will, without doubt, leave you a more grounded, relaxed, and yes, happier parent." -Lisa Damour, author of Untangled: Guiding Teenage Girls Through the Seven Transitions Into Adulthood, "When it comes to parenting, KJ knows the research and the reality. We can be happier parents--if, that is, we understand what gets in our way and what we can change. With real advice and fascinating science, this book helps you be the parent you want to be." --Charles Duhigg, author of the New York Times bestsellers The Power of Habit and Smarter Faster Better "Parenting expert KJ Dell'Antonia draws on the latest research to find ways to make life happier with her family of four children. She's candid (and often hilarious) about her own struggles, and her wise, practical advice for tackling common pain points such as chores, homework, siblings squabbles, devices, and discipline rings true, because she's tried it all herself." --Gretchen Rubin, author of the New York Times bestsellers Better Than Before, Happier at Home, and The Happiness Project "HOW TO BE A HAPPIER PARENT is a revelation, an entire book intended to support rather than undermine, parents who wish to lead with love and trust that everything else will follow. I am so grateful for her straight talk, sincerity, and willingness to share her own mistakes." --Jess Lahey, author of the New York Times bestseller The Gift of Failure "In this timely book, Dell'Antonia is realistic, grounded, smart and, importantly, specific. She provides the real-world experience and the research to understand what might be keeping you from feeling happy and then describes what you might do to make it better.

The result is an ideal blend of humble confessions, blunt reckonings, and relatable humor, offered with zero judgment and plenty of empathy. As this wise expert comes to feel like a close friend, we trust that we, too, can be far happier than we'd realized." --Julie Lythcott-Haims, author of the New York Times bestseller How to Raise an Adult
