Staying true to her brand, Cyndi Lewis doles out snarky self-help advice on parenting with a twist. For a completely honest and oftentimes humorous opinion on the subject matter, Lewis interviews her two little boys (ages 9 and 12) about parenting.

Suck Less at Parenting: How NOT to Raise Little Monsters gives would-be parents, parents, grandparents, and all caregivers out-of-the-box ideas and relatable advice about how to get through some of the challenges that come with raising children. Parenting isn’t always about trying to climb a steep mountain without the right gear, and there is no one perfect manual for your specific situation.

Luckily for you, however, sometimes you just need to have the right friend with the right advice to stand alongside you and offer new solutions to age-old problems. Lewis is that friend who is in the parenting trenches right alongside you trying to suck less every day.

While there are certainly challenges in parenting, there are also many great opportunities along the way to find creative ways to make memories and traditions and to teach them how NOT to grow up to be little monsters. .
