Dad Said It Was Fine: What to Do When You're the One Carrying the Rules, the Worry, and the Blame - Softcover
Synopsis
Four words you've heard more times than you can count — and a pattern most parenting books never actually name.
You're the one who holds the line: the bedtime, the screen limit, the curfew. He's the one who softens it, quietly, when you're not in the room — and somehow you end up the strict one, the nag, the bad cop, while he stays the fun parent who never has to enforce anything. This isn't a book about who's right. It's about the mechanism underneath the exhaustion.
Drawing on decades of real family-systems research — including Bowen's work on the parenting triangle — Dad Said It Was Fine shows you how to see the pattern before you're standing in the middle of it, close it without turning every bedtime into a fight, and know exactly what's yours to carry and what never was.
Thirty short chapters. No filler. Written for a reader who doesn't have time for a book that makes the problem bigger before it makes it smaller.
Also by Claire Ashworth: Wide Awake at 2:17 AM and Somewhere Around Six.
