"A beautiful tale of one family trying to figure things out--and, at the same time, a brilliant synthesis of a century of psychological science on how all of us can learn to dive headfirst into challenges, grow and adapt, and ultimately do well in life." --Angela Duckworth, New York Times bestselling author of GritRaise kids to be strong, confident, and happy--by parenting the Australian wayDamien Cave and his wife Diana thought they understood what it meant to take risks. As two journalists who traveled the world covering pressing international stories, they were convinced they had seen it all; that is, until they moved to Australia.

Cave's exploration of Australian parenting culture, through gripping research and storytelling, will have you questioning everything you thought you knew about safety, risk, parenting, and, ultimately, being human."An illuminating parenting guide, a takedown of America's self-esteem industrial complex, and a deep study of contrasts between the Australian and American minds." --Pamela Druckerman, New York Times bestselling author of Bringing Up Bébe
