French Parenting


My Aunt Debbie recently sent me a very interesting clip from the Today Show showcasing a new book about French parenting. The book's author is an American living in Paris who is experiencing bringing up her children the 'French' way. Her book is about the differences she has found between American and French parenting norms. 

While I don't have any bébés myself, I still found this to be quite intriguing. However, I must say that after living with a French family raising children, some of these are a bit of a stretch. I guess my verdict is still out at the moment.

My Aunt says she thinks she might incorporate 'La Pause' into her life with everyone she knows, not just kids :) Enjoy the clip!
